IPv6 growth is slowing and no one knows why. Let's see if El Reg can address what's going on

Re: NAT required

"NAT is NOT a security feature!"

True, but it can be used as an obfuscation feature, and that has some security value. I much prefer it if the world outside of my LAN only has a single IP address for it rather than having the IP address for each device on my LAN being exposed to the world.

So, IPv6 or no, I'll still be using NAT to accomplish this.
