The researcher, Anthony Russell, says that he can actually locate Monero users through transaction broadcasts.
When users open up their Monero wallets, they connect to the peer-to-peer network, which allows users to then connect to individual wallets.
According to Russell, If the users of those wallets aren’t using TOR or I2P, you can easily determine their IPs.
One potential problem with this method is that it doesn’t necessarily differentiate between server nodes and peers. However, Russell says that this can be overcome by doing a simple whois search............

LOL! Collecting IPs from netstat output reveals identities. This is so fucking retarded.
You've been targeted with FUD! How do you feel about that?
So who does this one work for?
