No, I like living in my nat cocoon so I don’t have to worry as much about all the devices on my network. Jk it’s turned on, but I don’t usually enable it on devices
But still, if I understand correctly, with NAT you can just use one firewall for your router and with IPv6 you’d need a firewall for each of your devices. This seems like a lot more to manage, right? But maybe I still don’t understand the concept of IPv6.

NAT is not a security feature.
Thank you!!
If you don’t want your devices to be accessible from the internet, you want a firewall. Treating NAT like a firewall is a bad idea.

Get a firewall. Malicious STUN, ALG DoS attacks, just these things make your NAT router less secure than you think it is.
