   Yes.  I can see a niche ISP going into business to support a user   
   community   
   that wishes to remain anonymous.  But there's nothing stopping that   
   ISP from   
   going into that business today without any changes to IPv4 at all.   
   Nothing   
   stops the ISP from doing NAT at his egress interfaces.   
   "   
      
   That might not be true.   
      
   NAT can cause problems for software.   
      
   An ISP always applieing NAT could be problematic for end   
   users/clients/software.   
      
   With my idea it becomes possible to switch between "public" operation and   
   "private" operation.   
      
   New software could therefore make use of the new privacy mode by setting the   
   ip.flag0 bit ;) :)
