Your IP address changes every 24h, doesnt it? How are IP bans effective at all?
Maybe yours does, but that's not universal in the slightest
I was talking about ipv4 addresses. There is no interner service provider that I'm aware of that gives non-business customers static ipv4 addresses.
It's not that expensive to buy a premium static IP from ISPs. It's like 10% on top of a usual monthly rate, so not a terribly expensive one.
