True. However, someone on, say AT&T, may get an IP address that had been
previously assigned to /someone else/ on AT&T. Many ISP's use "dynamic" IP
address assignments, and force their clients to change addresses on
occasion.

Also, many clients use IPv4 NAT to connect multiple devices to the internet
through one "public" IP address. Mom's laptop and Dad's desktop would,
while having different private IP addresses within their home LAN, have the
same IP address to Richard's website.
