Re:Over 25% of Verizon Wireless Traffic Is Now Over IPv6 by acdha on Wednesday April 24, 2013 @08:55PM (#5605087)
It's true that NAT reduces the risk of portscans but that's not much of a benefit any more. For at least a decade the accepted best practice has been host rather than perimeter level security and that's only become more important over time. It took awhile but the average device sold today doesn't have anything listening by default; at this point you're just subsidizing a few market-trailing manufacturers.
