If it blocks your IP, wouldn’t everyone who came to your house get banned as long as they’re using your Wi-Fi?

But... CG-NAT. Most people don't have their own IP, so how do you deal with this?

    Either they’ll see it like some kind of public WiFi, or there’ll be collateral damage. But keep in mind that CG-NAT usually only applies to IPv4, so if your ISP and home network support IPv6, Reddit won’t have said problem and see you IPv6 address.
