They will also be terminating another 5-10% of their EU userbase this month for not accepting their latest price hikes. These will mostly be the low-volume users who were too lazy to cancel.

Wait for the special offers before signing up for a plan again, folks. And explore the alternatives in the mean time... you might just discover that you don't need them.

I only eat vegans. Would that count?

There is no point waiting for a response...the threat has been neutralized. Now repeat after me: There is no AGI.

I'd say that the board members also have to have some personal liability (criminal of course, but also limited financial liability and a temporary or permanent ban on serving on any board or executive (legally responsible) position, depending on circumstances. Incentives must be aligned, and not something that they can justify as a cost of doing business.

Dmoz was great.

I agree that such measures would help, however...... Good luck getting that into law (again, in some places). It's just not a realistic option.

What is your proposed solution?

You pay the Amazon tax indirectly often enough regardless. Huge chunks of the Internet run on AWS. And if it's not AWS, then it's Google Cloud or Microsoft Azure. Shareholders win again.

As for not buying shitty products, returning them when you realise how shitty they are, cancelling contracts when services turn shitty, etc. Yes, do that.

Welcome to the world of Carrier Grade NAT. 100.64.0.0/10 is reserved for this.

If you are lucky, you also have an IPv6 address. The catch is you need IPv6 on the client-side too.

A VPS or similar running wireguard and a proxy might bridge the gap.

It might also be possible to ask your provider for some port forwarding. Probably not, but check anyway.

Good luck!

Battery-licking good!

Dynamic DNS is probably still required, unless his ISP issues dedicated or very long term IPv6 leases.

IPv6 may also "just work" nowadays, too, especially if the aim is to connect from mobile or other consumer networks. Corporate environments are still hit & mostly miss.
