Wow. IPV4 addresses aren’t free, but they’re not usually that expensive either.

With cloudfront it's not just one IP, it's potentially one at every edge node. But yeah, every time I see that pricing I get a little chuckle because it's so obviously deterrent pricing - it's not how much the IP address costs, it's the minimum amount Amazon wants for dealing with your bullshit.
On most hosts I've used, they're about $2/month.

I wish it were the year 2060 so IPv6 could finally be used reliably.
