From the article:
"Faced with the shortage of IPv4 addresses and the failure of IPv6 to
take off, British ISP PlusNet is testing carrier-grade network address
translation CG-NAT, where potentially all the ISP's customers could be
sharing one IP address, through a gateway. The move is controversial as
it could make some Internet services fail, but PlusNet says it is
inevitable, and only a test at this stage."
