Well, I'd be happy to discuss with this them again, but they'd have to
actually tell us what "DDNS" really is for them.

What specific solution are they talking about?  Tell us the whole story,
including how the credential gets into the device.

In particular, I'd like to know if it's okay with them if an arbitrary device
in their home automatically signs up with a DDNS provider, disclosing their
IPv6 address to the world.
