Not often you hear something that has changed just about every aspect of life and enabled things that could not be imagined at its outset called a failure
Sounds like you are describing the Roman Empire. It failed and that's why we now have an EU in its place. Things change. Time to move on. IPv4 has run out of addresses and we are nowhere near finished GROWING THE NETWORK. IPv6 was created to solve just this problem, and 10 years ago folks started deploying it in order to be ready. By 5 years ago, every significant router on the market supported IPv6. Now that we actually need IPv6 in order to continue network growth, most ISPs are in the fortunate position that their network hardware already supports it well enough, so the investment required is minimized. --Michael Dillon
