Unless you're planning to assign random IPv6 addresses for each connecton then it's not at all the same thing.
And anyways, when you have a NAT you're probably routing traffic through a level 4 balancer or jumphost or using a VPN somewhere in your LAN.

- Dylan16807 5y agoSLAAC has an option to randomize, but it's a lot slower than per-connection.
- mrkurt 5y agoWe assign IPv6 deterministically. Incrementing them is the most boring way to use IPv6 space. You can also just start in the middle of a block and make a sequence of 10,000 IPs effectively unguessable. I don't buy that keeping addresses private has much value, but IPv6 still isn't worse than NAT in that respect.
