Seriously, my knowledge ends with:

  • It offers a shitload of IP addresses
  • They look really complicated
  • Something about every device in your local network being visible from everywhere?
  • Some claim it obsoletes NAT?

I get that it’s probably too complicated a subject for an ELI5, so if there are good videos or resources explaining it in less than half an hour, feel free to share.

    How do I handle whether I want my phone number to be known to the world?
    Does my phone number ever change on its own or can I freely change it?
    Who has the phone book?
    Feel free to turn this into an ELI5years in general IT after a career change where I started from scratch.
