Isn’t essentially the entire US on CG-NAT for IPv4 on mobile data?
I’ve also had DOCSIS connections, i.e., fixed lines, with only CG-NAT in Europe years ago.
I wonder if that's not very visible in Cloudflare's data because those mobile devices will likely use IPv6 to connect to Cloudflare-hosted sites.
