That's pretty much just pushing the centralization from Google, AWS etc to the hosting services.
Then start building community ISPs that allow for individuals to have their own IPs again.
If you want to solve the problem, you have work to do.
Or you can sit around and complain like you're trying to justify and defend doing, and live without access to ad free quality videos. Your choice.
Good luck getting a block of IP addresses from your regional internet registry for this community ISP... IP address exhaustion is just that, no more addresses. That's why we are sharing them.
We do have a solution and it's called IPv6, but its deployment is still not as widespread as people would like to be. If I self-host my website on IPv6, a lot of people from Europe would still be unable to access it.
Then start convincing people to use it.
The only one who is going to be hurt by you constantly making excuses is you. No matter what hurdles you face, you have to overcome them, even if you have to build your own separate network from scratch, or you'll never be free from the yoke of corporations and more importantly for you, you'll never be free of the blame.
Tell me you haven't seen people adamantly defending IPv4 without telling me so...
You're right, I haven't. What dumb bullshit were they saying?
