It doesn't there are millions of IPv6 only devices that can connect to IPv4 only sites. See US mobile carriers.

An IPv4 address on the wire is just a 32 Bit integer in big endian. The quad-dotted notation is the most common for IPv4 but you could also use hex or decimal. There was an article on HN just recently about that. I can't find it right

Pornhub redirects Tor users to their .onion which has been broken for at least months. If someone has a contact there please tell them to fix it.

Thats what I meant with the other way around. That would be awesome but how? Are there any protocolls that could do that? Any research? A paper? Because for my simple mind it seems impossible.

True I should have written "They should learn" or they could open security holes. Now I'm interested on what kind of "home network" you have that makes v6 that hard.

IPv6 has backwards compatibility thats how the IPv6 only mobile networks work. If you think the other way around then my question is how?

Valid point but all those "not network engineers" that build networks can either fight it or implement it. Either way they have to learn it because they get exposed to it at least passively as the article calls it.

I have a really hard time imagine a system that does not have those problems and provides the larger address space IPv6 provides. What would be your solution thats orders of magnitude easier to implement?

Setting up a non trivial network requires a deep understanding of networkig whether it is v4 or v6. I don't get your point.

We have millions of customers of which most don't know what an IP is. They mostly have a standard network, wired PCs, wifi devices, consoles etc. like 99% of all people. They browse facebook and instagram, search on google and watch yo

Thats the case in the US afaik. I don't know the stats globally but Switzerland has 40% and no mobile carrier supports IPv6 yet.

>I just want my devices connected. Which IPv6 does pretty well even if you aren't a network engineer. More than 40% of all requests to google are from IPv6 and the vast majority of those connections are from people that never heard

I have a small API to get the source ASN for IPs [0] that also does bulk exports of all announced subnets by an ASN [1]. Feel free to use it in your scripts there are no rate limits although it's not super performant so please don'

JUICE has a launch mass of 5,963 kg while Juno had 3,625 kg and Voyager only 721.9 kg. I guess it may be a limit of the launch vehicle and the mass the spacecrafts have.

I've tested the site with the Tor Browser and it told me "Yes! You are unique". I've downloaded my fingerprint, closed the Tor Browser and did it again and again it was unique. So they couldn't link the two sessions

Tor relies on the IPv4 scarcity to make Sybil attacks more expensive but is slowly moving away from it e.g. the number of allowed relays per IP was recently doubled from 2 to 4 and it may get doubled in the near future again. >Roger Ding

They they don't need NAT that is simply called routing. The ISP sends every packet that is in your assigned /64 to your routers IP address. It's called prefix delegation [0] Yes they get a /32 by default (at least in RIP

No ISPs don't need to do NAT but you can if you like. You also don't have to do NAT with IPv4 if you only have one device or get a subnet from your ISP. It's just done because we don't have enough v4 addresses. They can

Every device implements privacy extensions which changes the address every 24 hours. It's no longer based on the MAC and hasn't been for a long time.

You can easily do this by looking at the IP address. All exit node IPs are public, you don't need browser fingerprinting for that.

A single 800Gbit/s port can do 259200000 GB a month. That's 5'184'000$ a month. Their traffic prices are ridiculous and there is no excuse for it.

True but the last part of the article is basically only about the computation and not about mathematical breakthroughs. And from that point of view both numbers are equally infeasible to compute right?

That's possible true for the <50$ servers but with 143$ it's sustainable for the provider even if you use it 24/7. Yes 0.0005$ per GB egress and a provider in Europe still makes money.
