In the USA: complicated tax returns that require tax software and/or professional help. It's a rent-seeking scam.

IPv4! Hail IPv6
but IPv4 is so much nicer to read :((((
/s in case it's not obvious
Every single fucking isp (at least in the states): nah
Really? Both my home internet and my mobile phone internet give me ipv6 addresses.
My cellular yeah, though I don't consider them an isp since most throttle or deprioritize data after ~50 gigs. But both isps I've had, and all of the friends who I've helped with networking stuff (basically all of them), IPv4. Sometimes, some janky 'conversion' at the modem that leaves them with just v4 anyway. That was with their isp-supplied hardware...
Private health insurance.

On that note, Ben Shapiro as well.
Andrew Tate, though that may be dangerous as he'll probably turn into a martyr.
