Of course they can run their own services at home. How does renumber 
effect that (outside of poor v6 implementations at this late stage)?

v6 is designed to support multiple prefixes and the ability to change 
from one prefix to another with limited disruption, especially if I give 
24 hours to complete the transition.

If servers and services can't handle this, I'd say they need to improve, 
or the customer will need a static allocation, which we may or may not 
charge for (depending on how automated we make it).

A sane default of rotation is appropriate for us, though, and no amount 
of fighting by anyone will make the Telco think that google or others 
have the right to track their users. It's unfair for our users who block 
cookies, do due diligence to not be tracked, and then we throw them to 
the wolves with a constant trackable prefix.
