Re: V6 still not supported

I think you’re jumping to conclusions that Sony is doing this purely from the darkness in their hearts. The same thing 
could be said about Netflix and Hulu blocking traffic from addresses that appear as proxies/VPNs. Like it or not we had 
many years where the primary expectation of the Internet was that you could map a single ISP customer back to an IP 
address and MANY services still cling to this belief.

This is why we have situations like this where even law enforcement agencies can’t seem to wrap their heads around 
multiple customers all sharing the same IP address. You have to remember that a majority of people do not see all this 
behind the scenes stuff so as far as they are concerned the Internet will continue working as it always has and any 
deviation in that is a problem with the ISP when all of their friends can connect fine except for them.
