Being able to use a previously unused IP address is usually a good thing, pity that there are so few of those left.
ISPs definitely seem to have an impact as well, but some spamfilters at least used to automatically assign a negative score to anything originating from an IP block used by an ISP for domestic Internet connections.
- lucb1e 10y agoWell, there's plenty of IPv6 around. My ISP gives out /48 blocks to all customers together with a single, static v4 address. The difference in number of public addresses is incredible.
- TheMog 10y agoGood point, although that's a different rant after I found out that my ISP has an IPV6 enabled backbone but won't allegedly roll out IPV6 to their clients until late this year.
