It's not insane, it's the default and correct assumption. I certainly don't want random computers connecting to mine just because they want to.

STUN is a shitty solution to this problem, but IPv6 doesn't provide any solution at all, so a shitty solution wins here. Sorry.

2. Say IPv6 doesn't have a solution

3. ???

4. Profit

Sigh.
