> My ISP offers either a home contract, where the IP forcefully changes every 24h and I can't pay for static IP, or they offer business contracts for businesses with minimum 10 employees, but that contract requires proving you're a registered as business with the local chamber of commerce & have the tax paperwork.

Wow, and I thought Comcast was customer hostile, this is just bonkers.

German ISPs are kinda weird like that. Unmetered gigabit FTTH for $70/month, no CGNAT, and open peering. 3 phone numbers and 2 phone lines included. But static IP isn't even an option.

I've built custom dyndns scripts to automate everything away, so nowadays it's only a second of interruption (thanks to some DNS TTL trickery), but it's nonetheless really annoying to deal with.

It's caused (magnified by upstream requirements by the RIR due to ipv4 exhaustion and possibly reputation mgmt.

In order to get a block isps need to provide a plan on how they will put the ips to good use for the benefit of society.
