Well, except for attackers behind the CG-NAT.

Also, CG-Nat is a HORRIBLE technology that causes lots of problems for subscribers all fo the sake of allowing an ISP to sell their IPV4 space off at a premium and pump up their numbers if a quarter demands it.

I'm with Virgin cable in the UK and they are going to IPv6 soon ... but with DS-Lite, so CG-NAT for IPv4 (yay, I can't connect back to my home VPN if I'm on an IPv4 only network) but native IPv6 (sort of yay).

You then also have the issues with online services, IP bans etc. etc. etc.

CG-NAT is nothing to be cheered on, and is worse than useless for "security".

Is that definite on Virgin? Seems uncertain still...

It's the method LG have decided on for all their cable networks, and according to this presentation from earlier this month, it's still the plan (and let's face it, if they changed to dual stack now it would take them another 4+ years to get it rolled out ... snails have NOTHING on the LG network operations team): https://www.ipv6.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/LG-Virgin...
