> because every time I set up a free v6 tunnel I get banned about 2 days layer for pushing a few terrabytes over it, when all I wanted was to be able to SSH into every one of my containers

can you describe a bit more? I cannot connect the dots here on how terabytes are tied to free v6 tunnel - likely I'm missing some details. Thank you in advance.

If someone else provides IPv6 connectivity to you, you use their bandwidth. Some apps like Steam see IPv6 connectivity and use it regardless of what you'd prefer it to use, hinting mechanisms and all. So while I just wanted to use the tunnel for things that IPv4 does not provide, I always end up tunneling half my traffic over it, which free services don't like.
