At this point they're not connected to the Internet. Pretty damn stupid,

Okay. With the help of an SMTP proxy having an Internet address, a web
proxy having an Internet address, etc., this company manages to connect
to the Internet. IPv6 is functionally identical to 10.* here.

is that there are only a few billion Internet addresses. How would you
suggest solving this problem?
