A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Yes, especially for simpler/smaller websites there can be hundreds or thousands behind a single IPv4 address.
Or if you have a larger infrastructure provider, use any kind of CDN or "target cloaking" or whatever there could be millions of different hosts on a single publicly visible address. (Or more like multiple shared addresses).
