[AusNOG] IPv6 Over Nothing

G'Day Mark

Now that we are all in the cloud & a lot of IPV4 ranges were abandoned over
the past 2 decades, although I do notice a few wanting to be on-prem. IPV4
recently, I don't see the need for IPV6, this is an interesting doc, but
ITs not a bus.case

Look at the price / sales of IPV4 dirt cheap & I'm not talking about
becoming an ISP & getting 1K of IPV4 for 'free' as part of the sign on with
ACMA ( BTW - I have worked at ACMA )

I have been writing code for 50 years & socket apps. for many decades in
Assem , Basic & C ( ABC ) & was analyzing WAN traffic in mid. '90s &
nothing has changed, spammers can be detected in real time & our No Spam
Accepted ( NSA ) has not had a spam msg in ~25 years - Time Tested ???

BTW - I see u are talking about performance, my idea has always been why
provide criminals with a gr8 experience, I want my link to be very slow &
our NSA tech. puts suspects to sleep, often for 5 secs. per SMTP session
before refusing to accept msg.
