Privacy Addresses are for a time slice of connections. You can cycle a new address every 10 minutes but the OS will keep old addresses until all connections over these addresses have been closed.
Stable-Privacy is just like having an IPv4, but if your prefix changes the suffix changes, so you can't be easily traced across prefix changes. For desktops, normal privacy should be configured.

You can cycle a new address every 10 minutes but the OS will keep old addresses until all connections over these addresses have been closed. Sounds like it's still worse than IPV4 + NAT, because your address + port tuple changes with each connection, whereas with ipv6 it's the same across connections for 10 minutes.
- zaarn 4y agoWith IPv4 + NAT your address does not change for 24h in most connections, while with IPv6 it changes every 10 minutes. IPv6 is better for privacy there. The outgoing port for IPv6 is also still randomized, so if you look at it over 2 days, on IPv4 you get two IPs doing a series of connections while with IPv6 you have potentially thousands for each device doing connections, with no way to correlate them.
