It would be rare for government to have dynamic IPs. The range would always be assigned to them. An IP changes when not assigned statically or when the lease reservation times out. Within the range assigned to the government and the demand for accountability the IP likely would be static or have a long term expiration -- meaning the device would have to be turned off for extensive periods of time.
This is very likely 100% bullshit.
IP addresses rarely remain static.
A 192 address is “private” which means that it is controlled by someone other than IANA.
Just looked it up.
It’s legit.

You're trying to say a 192. *. *. * IP address is registered externally?
Yes.
Only 192.168.0.0 - 192.168.255.255 is private. This is covered in RFC 1918 like 45semiautosp mentioned below.
Yep. Surprised the hell out of me too.
My post is the cut/paste of the IPWHOIS.
Almost. 192.168.x.x is part of rfc1918, basically meaning not routed on the public internet. The rest of 192.x.x.x is public essentially.
Could still be BS though. That's a different story.
But those won’t be for a person.
192 does not indicate private.192.168 does.

Nope, only 192.168.0-255 is private (as in not publically allocated) the rest of 192 is allocated.
