And we are facing the effects of it as we’re speaking. CGNAT and protocols like TURN were not invented without a reason.

Not a big deal. We’re projected to run out of years by 2000 and then the world will end.

And it took a lot of hard work by a lot of people to adopt new date standards to avoid that problem. Now it’s time to adopt new IP standards, and it’s going to take a lot of hard work by a lot of people.
