alt Hacker News2k IPs is not enough to do most enterprise scale scraping. Starlink's entire ASN doesn't seem to have enough V4 addresses to handle it even.

The actual secret is to use IPv6 with varied source IPs in the same subnet, you get an insane number of IPs and 90% of anti-scraping software is not specialized enough to realize that any IP in a /64 is the same as a single IP in a /32 in IPv4.
If they're CGNAT then unless Starlink actively provides assistance to block them it won't matter.
As someone who wants the internet to maintain as much anarchy as possible I think it would be nice to see a large ISP that actively rotated its customer IPv6 assignments on a tight schedule.
