>Extremely few people have active IPv6, it seems unlikely to catch on now. Except that over 20% of the United States has IPv6 connectivity. In fact, you might be using it without knowing (most mobile providers have it now, in fact some use IPv6->IPv4 translation methods) [1]. >Remember though, this leaks all interface IPs Does it? Maybe you should file a bug so that only routable interfaces and non-LL IPs are used. This does seem like a problem.

> Except that over 20% of the United States has IPv6 connectivity. The entire rest of the world has near-zero, just look at your own link. I'm in Canada and we have 0.55% here. No local ISP will offer it to me, and the one that did withdrew it completely last year. So perhaps I'm just slighted. There are a few other countries with 5%+ but it still makes up only a very small percentage of internet users. To top it off, while there has been some IPv6 adoption in the US, CGN has also caught on pretty heavily all over the world and seems to be, sadly, the solution most ISPs will actually go with for the near term at least. > Does it?

This does seem like a problem. https://diafygi.github.io/webrtc-ips/ https://diafygi.github.io/webrtc-ips/ is able to immediately reveal all the VM interfaces on my system even with no VMs using them. I suspect this is done so that faster routes may be established, but it is indeed a major problem for anyone who doesn't like fingerprinting.
