> Globally routable ≠ globally connectible
Tell us with the next 0 day, because that big problem exist, and unfortunately happens every days.
IPv6 == All your devices are globally ROUTABLE and CONNECTIBLE from Internet, your home network is part of internet. It is an additional rule in the router's firewall what temporarily avoids it. Remark in temporarily, as one day the gifted packet will arrive to the router. This is not cool.
So much so -the home network is part of internet- that if you want to create a simple Video NAS or whatever, one have to use external DNS services, as no one have control over its own local IPs... what are served by the ISP. This is not cool.
Even if it was not designed for it, NAT has been helping to secure and giving flexibility to our local networks along decades, but someones decided to reject it from the specification. Bad decision.
