You can't use IP address to ban someone without significant abuse. All home network routers put everyone in the house behind the same IP address. For all reddit knows, there are 8 people in the house using reddit.

Want a new IP address? Reset your router or cycle it. Typically it'll procure a new IP address from the ISP.

I guess that makes IP banning residential nodes even more stupid.
