Yes, the intent of the title is to get your attention, but I'm not trying to get you to buy anything, collecting or selling user data, etc.
I really just wrote the post to share a debugging experience I had this year. It doesn't have to do with IPv{4,6} addresses themselves or any specification thereof, but it does relate to the Python 2 `ipaddress` library's handling of them and a pitfall you can accidentally find yourself in.
A dry, but more accurate title might have been
