This feature is mandatory and there is no way you can disable it, however one might be able to use a VPN or the Tor network, although it has been reported that Snapchat is now blacklisting VPN networks and Tor exit nodes [2] claiming that they "detected suspicious activity", forcing the user to reveal their real IP address.
