No use you telling me that, do you expect me to argue against that,
e.g. writing a long explanation and let you be the teacher and mark me
on it?
This is not the issue. But we can make it a subissue if you want.

You certainly deem some solutions to be for the ignorant masses. I
just want to know which.

It seems from this thread that you deem
NAT Routers to be for the ignorant masses.
And firewall appliances to be for technical / not for the ignorant
masses.

Again, you still can't grasp simple concepts.

NAT routers are the minimum level of protection that I would suggest any
person use, the minimum. They work for the ignorant masses because they
don't require anything from the ISP or the User, and they don't really
break anything that the Ignorant masses typically make use of.

For the Ignorant masses I would suggest that all ISP's enable NAT on
their ISP provided modem/router device and only disable it if the
customer is smart enough to know the difference.

You keep going around in circles and I'm not going to play that game,
it's that simple.

you've made a good attempt to go round in a circle by avoiding the
question, and repeating what you already said. But you failed

By your own accidental choice of words this time round, you've changed
or revealed your position a bit more.

Instead of saying it's a solution for the ignorant masses, you now say
it works for the ignorant masses.

That's a different statement. The implications are different.
