You’re right IPv6 has compatibility issues. But for instances needing NAT gateway (no public ip) , they are often good candidates for IPv6 egress.

thanks for explaining that. I could see some value and also tremendous risk. My concern is that the Windows Credential itself doesn’t have a ton of value (opening windows apps) but the browser cookie jar (e..g Edge or Chrome) , which the C

Any technical minds care to explain how the "agentic Windows" actually functions? Based on the marketing it seems to run a sandboxed copilot instance that can impersonate the user to take actions, with their permission? Something
