At time of writing, the biggest privacy weakness that WireGuard has is how it assigns IP addresses. When you connect to a VPN service using OpenVPN or IKEv2, you’re assigned a different IP address each time. WireGuard instead gives you the same IP address each time. This is faster, but it means the VPN server must keep logs of your real IP address and connection timestamps.
The address assigned inside the tunnel has nothing to do with your real address, and definitely does not have anything to do with whether or not the VPN server is keeping logs of your real IP address and timestamps of your connection.
OpenVPN and charon keep far more logs of those things by default that wireguard and you have to trust your VPN provider turned them off.
