Even better, docker-compose doesn't do IPV6 (well). But if you have an IPV6 address, it will NAT all the incoming IPV6 traffic on the open ports to IPV4 using the internal network gateway address.

So, if you're doing any filtering for internal network addresses == internal traffic, congratulations, now your inbound external IPV6 traffic is recognized as internal.

And even better 0.0.0.0 isn’t the default on Docker For Mac, leading devs to a false sense of security who develop on Macs.
