ITT: We discuss effects of IP6 on the internet. For example how will they ban us when we have essentially infinite IP addresses.

IP6 is phytic acid. Do you, perchance, mean IPv6?

Just because there are more IPs available in general doesn't mean your shitty ISP will have a wider range available for their dynamic IP customers, or that there will be more proxies out there.
I'm sure sysadmins around the world are rejoicing at yet another confirmation that faggot trolls just don't know how the internet works, though.

We are talking millions of IPs per person. There is no way that the ISPs will be able not to hand out more. Especially because the makers of small internet enabled devises will pressure for their devices to be able to subnet within the homes of individual subscribers.

You massively overestimate the goodwill of the de facto monopolies that hand out these IP addresses to the ISP in the first place. I seriously doubt prices will drop significantly in the next decade.

I stand corrected. >>6
I could be wrong but I do not think that the people that designed IPv6 many of whom are the same people that give out the addresses would have provided for such a large address space along with its cost in data had they believed that we would still be dolling out only one address per household.

As it stands, they're running out of addresses. If they massively increase the supply, but also maintain a monopoly on it, all it means is that they can continue to run retarded profits indefinitely.
It'd be nice if they decided to stop sucking, but I wouldn't hold my breath.

It will suck because I won't get dynamic IP anymore, there will be enough addresses to assign everybody and his dog a static one.
Right now, it's pretty much impossible for anybody to ban me without banning at least half of a major city.
Srsly, I don't want to be so easily identified. Dynamic IP is good. Static is AIDSU.

On the bans, there are already programs like Urchin 5 that implement javascripts, client headers and cookies to establish identity. You can turn of javascripts, but there are ways of restricting access to people using them. These can be circumvented, but then again, so can IP bans. Neither is very hard, but still hard enough to keep the /b/-going masses at some sort of homestasis and uphold the Status Quo of the internets.
Still, changing the network from IPv4 to v6 is like repieceing the boat under you, while at sea, with pieces of wood that do not fit with the old IPv4 pieces, but only with other new IPv6 pieces. Not in the next decade anyhow...
The ones who have IPv6 available for their customers, that is. Plus, there's no NAT in IPv6, so each machine = one public IP. ISPs *have* to supply plenty to one customer.

NAT and private IPs considered harmful in IPv6.
Seriously, with IPv6, every single physical device that uses the intarblarg gets its own IP address. You can create private networks within your router, but they'll still have regular "public" IP addresses.

PROTIP:NAT IS A MAJOR HACK. NAT SECURITY IS THROUGH OBSECURITY. NOTHING SAYS YOU CANNOT USE NAT IN IPV6

Short for Natalie. She's the reason your internet sucks.

SHIT NIGGA I NAT EACH ONE OF MY MACHINES LIEK 200 TIMES FOR ULTRALATENCY SECURITY
NAT: DO WANT because hiding behind machines is awesome. Moot doesn't have to know whether I'm browsing 4chan from my desk, the HTPC in the living room or from my laptop while sitting on the toilet.

The only problem with NAT is that you have to manually configure port forwarding for most applications, which, while it can be a pain the advantages of NAT outweigh the disadvantages (at least for me).

It's not like you'd connect a computer to the Internet without a deny-by-default hardware firewall anyway, so what's the difference?

The day they attempt to switch to IPv6, everything will crash and fuck up and we'll be left without interwebs for about a week, which means worldwide crisis. However, that's not going to happen. We'll never move to IPv6. Do you expect Windows fuckwits to upgrade, give a damn, or even understand?

Know about yet I guage ever The army was completely empty The engine was still running and it was a single string that executes with the single press of the enter key i e images But the doors did not make this a hack he asked me to And that would mean that you have no life You should just rm everything because what you do and commit it to.
