right, but this isn't theoretical. ipv6 was finalized 25 years ago and global adoption is around 1/3. There's something seriously wrong and it's not that 2/3s of the world are using Windows Me and 20+ year old devices that don't support it.

It's human and behavior driven and addressing that is a matter of packaging, process, promotion, product, presentation... all those marketing ps.

Nitpicking, but it looks closer to 1/2: https://www.google.com/intl/en/ipv6/statistics.html

Also it's increasing at ~5% a year, so in 12 years it'll be at ~104%.

Interesting. I guess it depends on how it's measured. I had just searched "adoption rates" and saw it said 1/3.

China is a laggard again here. I earlier saw that they were the largest windows xp holdout left. Sure it's only. 0.5% but many places are down to 0.1.
