This shouldn't come as a huge surprise. Meta is moving forward with their plans for Theads and the Fediverse, and their adjusted terms reflect a new impending reality for Fediverse users.

Wouldnt the name of your profile be more specific than your ip address so it doesnt matter if they get your ip address or not?

Also, why would they store the data? They cant show you ads

I think the policy has more to do with your server's IP address. The language on the page is a bit vague, since they absolutely collect the IP addresses of their own users.
