> But ISPs need to stop dragging their damn feet...

But, why would they if dragging their feet makes them a lot of money? Why would they bother unless there's massive demand from the public for full IPv6 adoption?

I mean even ISPs with IPv6 support don't care about the IPv6 experience of their customers. AT&T, for example, doesn't give more than a /64 address space to home users, which only supports one subnet. If you have, say, a guest network and a trusted network, you can't have separate inbound routing/firewall rules as both would have the same prefix.

So, I disagree that convincing network operators is the right way to go about it. We need to convince the public about the benefits of IPv6.
