It should also require allowing incoming connections. Too much ISPs, especially mobile, are gives one-way Internet now. Basically like having a phone line with no phone number.

You should google "CG-NAT" and learn why mobile providers don't (and simply can't) provide you a public IP. Get yourself a cheap VPS, set up a reverse proxy, and open all the ports you want.

I know why they do that, lack of v4 space and other reasons. Why we need to push forward with such legislations.

VPS + Wireguard is great. And my DNS provider allows private range IPs as "A" records, so I have subdomains for my different home servers.

That's due to there not being enough IPv4 addresses, and IPv6 is... forgotten I guess.

IPv6 is actually widely implemented. Home ISPs are mixed on providing IPv6, but mobile providers widely embrace IPv6, some even running IPv6-only networks that rely on translation services to reach IPv4 destinations. T-Mobile is IPv6-only for example

Interesting. Unfortunately, my carrier is IPv4-only (Swan Mobile).

Yeah, IPv6 adoption varies quite a bit by country and region. It's a shame that it's going so slow

It is not forgotten. https://youtube.com/watch?v=vo5glK9czIE

My ISP have full IPv6 support, but block all traffic via firewall...
