With private address spaces and good routers with NAT, A lot of businesses can
operate with just a couple of internet adresses.

Also, consider some of the huge blocks that were allocated to a few companies

HP now has all of those, even though HP today has nowhere near the same number
of employees that the individual companies had.

Every appliance and vehicle could have its own IP address. So when you plug
your fridge into your home LAN it would have its own public IP address, a bit
like its serial number.
