0.0.0.0 means your local machine, right? Is it the same as localhost?
It means your computer could not pull an IP address from the DHCP host.
0.0.0.0 is a reserved default IP for when things go craxy.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
0.0.0.0 is the official IP adress for Nowhere.

Except sometimes, 0.0.0.0 is the IP address for Anywhere.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
0.0.0.0 is nowhere.
