Your IP address changes every 24h, doesnt it? How are IP bans effective at all?

I was talking about ipv4 addresses. There is no interner service provider that I'm aware of that gives non-business customers static ipv4 addresses.

Dynamic yes, objecting to 24h. Many places keep the same dynamic address for months or years
