   Alright, network wizards and packet-pushing sysadmins! Feeling brave this November? I dare you, double-dog dare you, to take the No NAT November challenge! Can you handle the raw, unadulterated terror of the public internet without your trusty NAT to hide behind? Will your Linux and Unix/Windows servers survive the exposure? Will your routers spontaneously combust? Only one way to find out! Ditch the NAT, embrace the chaos, and let's see if you make it to December in one piece! 😈

     @nixCraft Nah, we have been living happily in the IPv6 world without NAT for a loooong time already. Proper firewall is the thing that cuts off the noise.

     @nixCraft appreciate an article on this. Need to understand in more detail. Yes I did search ducks but not making sense to me at least for now. I know the term but how not to live without NAT. And what’s that NAT66 and NAT64.

     @nixCraft Considered it, but couldn't find any IPv4 blocks available.

     @nixCraft I think the biggest problem would be, that i could always connect just a single device to the internet...
