Is it possible to find someone else's address using google maps?

Today I decided to look at Google maps. And I see that my address is written on the bottom left, based on MY IP. As far as I know, a mere mortal cannot find out ip in this way. And the question arose: Is it possible, knowing the ip of a person, to find out his address using Google maps?

I suppose when we all clicked 'Agree' on android phones when we were asked if you agree to send data about coordinates and wireless networks to improve the service, then this BIG DATA is carefully stored and analyzed in order to make this binding ip - coordinates, incl. h. provider's wireless networks and wifi of your access points and so on.
It has long been useless to press 'Disagree', GPS will work very badly (it's a-GPS everywhere and requires additional information at least from the appropriate provider, I remember specifically trying to use an alternative one) or not working at all.
Probably, you can gut the requests sent by the service, all of a sudden there is something like requesting an address by ip, but they will not allow you to use it legally.

Didn't find what you were looking for?
