I basically disable all ipv6 on my routers & firewalls completely. Waiting for the day we can disable ipv4 completely instead and use only ipv6 without NAT. But then each device will need its own firewall. NAT basically forces you to use some kind of firewall, which applies to all devices behind the NAT. But if we go all-in on IPv6, the firewall-by-default becomes much harder to implement in practice. Then we will need some kind of distributed/federated firewall config to constantly keep devices usable but safe, but then that will introduce a new set attack vectors. So we are kinda screwed for now. We need that new internet, maybe one where you unify static ipv6, dhcp6, dns, firewalls, nat and a few other friends into a single thing. Or perhaps we can use ipv6 only to get a static ip address for each home/building, which then has a small vlan/vpn to group all your devices together using ipv4 internally for ease of use.. which is close to what we currently have with cgnat+ipv4+wireguard+vlans. All round we have a big mess but it works well, if you know what you are doing that is. This is all to say we can even keep net-neutrality for a while longer, we are okay for now but the american/uk/china/india govs plus entities like cloudflare will actually destroy net-neutrality in the long run. Much like email delivery has already been ruined & captured. Sorry for the rant.
You seem to have misunderstood how IPv6 works. In a home setup, all the traffic still goes through a single router which typically has a restrictive firewall enabled by default.
The article says:
> Modern routers ship with firewall policies that deny inbound traffic by default, even when a NAT is not being used.
So no, not every device needs its own firewall. You can have a single firewall at the entrance of your network.
