Is it NAT keeping everyone suppressed behind dynamic
translation or
is it more that 80% of the people on the net are just consuming media
and since they don't clamor for equal "real" IP access, the ISPs
simply don't care about that.
A bit from column A, a bit from column B, I would say.
This is why I
pay in excess of $300/month for a T1 line and a /27,
as well as ADSL with a /28 (from a local provider that doesn't care
if I run "servers" or not).
I'd do the same thing if I wasn't
such a tightwad or didn't have
friends that did as you do who let me host with them. It's
definitely very sub-optimal and expensive for no good reason. Thanks for that post. Very cathartic. Glad I'm
not the only one. :-)
No, no, you aren't the only one. Even most of what I cut I agree with;
it just didn't seem to call for a response.
