Don't some internet providers to large scale NAT (CGNAT), so customers each get a 10.x address instead of a public one? I'm not sure if this is a problem or not. It sounds like it could be.

It wouldn’t be important in this scenario, because what your own IP address is doesn’t matter (and most of us are sitting behind a NAT router too, after all).

It would block a site from scanning your other 10.x peers on the same network segment, thinking they’re “on your LAN” but that’s not a problem in my humble opinion.
