Now with IPv6 they will come with their laptops, get public IPs, download Gigs of pron/send spam/DDoS other sites. How you're going to control them without a router? NAT allows you to put them in a sandbox and set your own rules. |

Having a public IP does not mean you are exempt from firewalls, ACLs, access restrictions etc.
There is also nothing to stop you from NATing your public IPs out onto the Internet either. Its a bit silly, but it will work.
Regardless, however you are stopping people from doing stuff right now you can use the same methods to stop people from doing stuff on a public IPv6 address. |

IPv6 isn't going to turn every public IP into a dedicated link to the internet. It is allowing more addresses. You can still stop people getting out of your network if you choose |
