If it blocks your IP, wouldn’t everyone who came to your house get banned as long as they’re using your Wi-Fi?

    In general, ISP would sell a fixed IP adress as a fancy option, just unplug/replug your modem a couple of time and you’ll get a new IP. As very few ISP don’t offer IP6 yet another fancy option they have to pool their IP adresses among their customer

    This make IP ban pretty unreliable, and there is way better way to identify a single user even in private browsing
