<p>Are IDs, IPs, or onion addresses of nodes with whom lightning service providers had
issues, e.g. force-closures, shared between many different lightning service providers?
I don't mean here simply sharing between various nodes of the same entity but rather sharing between the nodes of separate entities (e.g. between ACINQ and Wallet_of_Satoshi).</p>

I don't mean here simply sharing between various nodes of the same entity but rather sharing between the nodes of separate entities (e.g. between ACINQ and Wallet\_of\_Satoshi).
