That said, google see nearly 40% of their traffic on  ipv6 in the usa ,
growth trend looks strong

And

Comcast (71%), Charter (52%), VZ (85%),  ATT (60 and 78%) , and T-Mobile
(95%) have the majority of their subs on ipv6

Verizon is an interesting case.  While IPv6 penetration on the wireless
side is very high, the same is not true on the Fios/DSL side.  IPv6
deployment there is nearly nonexistent.
I've heard rumblings that some early Fios users will need to have their
ONTs replaced to be able to get v6, regardless if the router itself
supports it.  I don't know if this is true, because I've never been able to
get a straight/authoritative answer from Verizon.

While a tunnel from HE works perfectly well, it would be nice to have
native v6 from VZ.

Sadly, ipv6 is creating a bifurcation of the internet.  Scale shops have
v6, and non-scale shops don’t. The big players are pulling away, and that
makes things bleak for the folks just trying to tread water in ipv4.



Frankly, I'm surprised anti-IPv6 people still have employment.

there is no ROI at this point. In this kind of environment there
needs to
be a strong case to invest the capex to support IPv6.
IPv6 must be supported on the CxO level in order to be deployed.

I see....well let me translate it you MBA-eese for you:
FANG deployed ipv6 nearly 10 years ago. Since deploying ipv6, the
cohort
experienced 300% CAGR. Also, everything is mobile, and all mobile
providers
in the usa offer ipv6 by default in most cases. Latency! Scale! As
your
company launches its digital transformation iot 2020 virtualization
container initiatives, ipv6 will be an integral part of staying
relevant on
the blockchain.  Also, FANG did it nearly 10 years ago.  Big content
and
big eyeballs are on ipv6, ipv4 is a winnowing longtail of irrelevance
and
iot botnets.

None of which matters a damn to almost all of my business eyeball
customers.  They can still get from our network to 100% of all Internet
content & services via IPv4 in 2019.

No you can’t.  You can’t reach the machine I’m typing on via IPv4 and
it is ON THE INTERNET.  It is directly reachable via IPv6.  Selling
Internet connectivity without IPv6 should be considered fraud these days.
Don’t
you believe in “Truth in Advertising”?

I had meant to write “They can still get from our network to 100% of all
Internet content and services that matter to them [our customers] via
IPv4...”

0% of my IPv4-only customers have opened tickets saying they cannot reach
some service that is only IPv6 accessible. So if they do care about IPv6
connectivity, they haven’t communicated that to us.
