Hello Bj”rn,

On Monday July 30 2018 23:17, you wrote to me:

It shows an IPv6 connection with IPvfox on my IP machine and Sixornot on my 
win7 laptop.

Indeed.

 BF>    But never mind. Just saying...

Maybe I should not have been as definite as I was. Perhaps I should have said 
"most of the big content providers" instead of "all".

Having said that...  About a decade ago I decided to not buy any new network 
equipment not supporting IPv6. Maybe we should start voting with our wallet 
when it comes to content as well.

"hey mr(s) content provider, if you want me to pay for your services, you had 
better offer them via IPv6, or else I will spend my money elsewhere."

I once cancelled an account with a DNS provider for not making progress with 
IPv6...


Cheers, Michiel
