inefficiency rather than pay the cost of efficiency. For example, with
128-bits, a computer needs to know only its network and its MAC
address to generate a unique address.
At this time MAC address is a private information
(.doc word file write it inside the document... strange thing...)
With ipv6, MAC address became public.
IMHO, this is'nt a good thing about our privacy... and perhaps about our
freedom...
But maybe I'm paranoiac
Even the easter bunny can see your mac-adress if it knows your ip.
Ipv6 is not the Mac adress
Soon Ipv4 will not have ip adresses for everybody, ipv6 will be needed, and
i just hope that it won't be late with so many delays.
and yes, you're been paranoid.
