*nods* Having v6 does solve a lot, but the ones that are difficult to work with in v4 are still using v4, so you still 
have problems. 

I think those experiences are ones felt only by small to medium service providers. Large carriers, academia, 
hosting\datacenter, etc. don't really have those problems. They do have different problems, but they're fairly well 
known problems with processes laid out on how to deal with it. 

See my thread from a few weeks ago calling on people doing IP reputation or any sort of geolocation, filtering, 
blocking, etc. being more transparent. There are ISPs that have tried everything short of driving to the content 
provider's location and demanding resolution.

For an eyeball network, you cannot count on an IPv6 only network. Because 
all of your "customers" will complain because they can't get to hulu, or 
any other ipv4 only eyeball service. You still need the ipv4s to operate a 
proper network, and good luck figuring out which services are blacklisting 
your new /24 because the ipv4 space used to be a VPN provider, and the "in" 
thing to do for these services is to block VPNs. 


There are many IPv6-only eyeball networks. Definitely many examples in 
wireless (T-Mobile, Sprint, BT ) and wireline (DT with DS-Lite in Germany, 
Orange Poland ...) and even more where IPv4 NAT44 + IPv6 is used. Just 
saying, having ipv6 hedges a lot of risk associate with blacklisting and 
translation related overhead and potentially scale and cost of IPv4 
addresses.

Meanwhile, FB reports that 75% of mobiles in the USA reach them via ipv6

deployment-is-growing-in-u-s-and-other-countries/ 


And Akaimai reports 80% of mobiles

And they both report ipv6 is faster / better.
