> The issue isn't that it wasn't planned properly, the issue is that the real world wasn't taken into consideration by people who either worked for the likes of Google who were aching for a globally unique identifier per device or just delusional about how much we can change in real world.
All this complaining and not so much as a single hint or even belief that there's a better solution.
I suppose we could read into the complaint some kind of faith that one does exist, but since nobody has found it yet, the faith is a little uncompelling so far.
This is hardly useful point. Internet is a collective project and there is only so much resources for making changes and improving things.
The problem with IPv6 apologists is that they're ignoring reality and just crying "only if everyone switched it would be fine."
We're out of ipv4. We need a solution that isn't 5 layers of nested nats. What is it?
