No, you just don't seem to understand. If your device has to talk to a web service then you don't own that device. That's by design. They don't like NAT because it impedes this model.

I don't have to expose any of my devices to the internet and none of them have to talk to a web service for me to make full use of them. Any device where this isn't true isn't one that I'll spend money on.
