None of this makes sense.

If you are behind most firewalls, then you are going through a NAT, which obfuscates your IP. Since you are using a tablet, your isp is probably either the phone/cable company (like verizon) or is leasing that service from those utilities.

As mentioned dhcp gives you a new IP whenever you reconnect to your ISP. Unless your router is using "4G", which is a cell phone connection. In that case your phone/cable company is actually connected to the internet. Not you. You are off somewhere else. You are really ultimately a phone number or simm card id, even thru a router.

So unless you can prove me wrong, I cannot see how "they" could "get" your IP. Whatever that means.

Contact your provider like verizon or whoever.. If you think you are blacklisted from a bunch of sites they can fix it. If in fact that is the case. And all those issues are external to your tablet anyway.

glutTabletButtonFunc(3GLUT)					       GLUT					       glutTabletButtonFunc(3GLUT)

NAME
glutTabletButtonFunc - sets the special keyboard callback for the current window. SYNTAX
#include <GLUT/glut.h> void glutTabletButtonFunc(void (*func)(int button, int state, int x, int y)); ARGUMENTS
func The new tablet button callback function. DESCRIPTION
glutTabletButtonFunc sets the tablet button callback for the current window. The tablet button callback for a window is called when the window has tablet input focus (normally, when the mouse is in the window) and the user generates tablet button presses. The button parame- ter will be the button number (starting at one). The number of available tablet buttons can be determined with glutDe- viceGet(GLUT_NUM_TABLET_BUTTONS). The state is either GLUT_UP or GLUT_DOWN indicating whether the callback was due to a release or press respectively. The x and y callback parameters indicate the window relative coordinates when the tablet button state changed. Registering a tablet button callback when a tablet device is not available is ineffectual and not an error. In this case, no tablet button callbacks will be generated. Passing NULL to glutTabletButtonFunc disables the generation of tablet button callbacks. When a new window is created, no tablet button callback is initially registered. SEE ALSO
