Sure there is--globally unique IPs.
I assume you're referring to IPv6? I was referring to IPv4.
It applies to both, though we've run out of IPv4. There's no other
way to guarantee the absence of network collisions.
A properly generated IPv6 ULA (Unique Local Address) prefix is
unlikely to have collisions.
A randomly selected subnet from 10/8 is also *unlikely* to have
collisions. But there's a defined difference between "unlikely" and
"guaranteed".
