Interesting new technology?

Yes, there is such a scenario. The pool of IPv4 adresses has run
out. Some providers use so called CGNAT for their customets. That means
they no longer have a unique glabally routable IPv4 address. That makes
unsollicited incoming connection IPv4 impossible. IPv6 solves that problem.
Cheers, Michiel
