For the uninitiated... this actually means your incoming connection port is blocked :p

I still got a green globe even though my incoming port is blocked because my ISP uses CGNAT

Hmm interesting. You actually don't need to manually open a port if you are using a VPN that allows port forwarding - is that the case for you?

Ask the germans how well that went for them, pirating without a vpn

Ask eastern europeans how long we are pirating without repercussions.
