This is totally bogus and unacceptable. If my ISP even thought
about putting me behind a NAT gateway, I would be looking for a new one
really quickly. It is one thing for a customer to run NAT internally at
their own option, but it is totally unacceptable for an ISP to force
them to use NAT. Note that I don't have a problem with an ISP charging
extra for giving a customer a large address range as opposed to just
giving them one address.
