It's mostly African and Asian countries with (very) low adoptions, and this translates to "screw all the countries too poor to adopt IPv6, and let's reduce their chances in the global economy even more". I'm putting it rather sharp here and I have no doubt that's not what your intent is, but that's absolutely an effect of forbidding IPv4.
- tomjen3 3y agoThere is an actual market for buying IPv4s, meanwhile you can get millions of IPv6 addresses for free. This means that connecting the next billion will be much cheaper if they don't have to compete with companies with far more money. So no, it does not mean screwing over the poor.
- arp242 3y agoThis is irrelevant. The infrastructure does not exist. Creating this infrastructure within two years would be a huge task (and who will pay for it?)
