I don't believe that they're expensive when I can rent VPS for few dollars per month. They might be more expensive than 10 years ago, but this cost is shared among all people behind NAT, so in the end it must be a rounding error.
Running servers at home is a good thing to have, but I doubt that ISP cares much about users running servers at home. Users watch youtube and netflix. That's what they optimize for.
- lolc 3y agoThe version 4 address is now a substantial cost when renting a server. It starts getting billed separately, so you can drop it if you don't need it.
- jandrese 3y agoThe days of getting a free IPv4 address when you rent a VPS are numbered. AWS is already rolling out a plan to charge by the hours for an IPv4 address and other VPN providers are paying attention.
