Comment on IPv6 Deployment Statusparent

Comments

I will be calling to complain if I am not assigned an ipv4 address by default. Very first thing I do whenever I move or get a new router is disable all ipv6. All of my client devices have ipv6 disabled. ipv6 takes a very simple addressing schema and unnecessarily turns it into an entire beeping protocol for no reason.

I don't care if I have to write angry letters to senators to pass laws forbidding the sunsetting of ipv4, this is 100% an issue I will go down fighting tooth and nail until I die or ipv6 dies, whichever first.

IPv6 is simpler than IPv4 in that you don't need to setup infrastructure (e.g., DHCP) to get going.

You've never needed to set up DHCP to use IPv4.
