> IPv6 is a disaster for personal privacy for the typical multi-user household Why? With privacy extensions (which are normally enabled for user devices), then all someone can do is look at the prefix. This is identical to looking at the IPv4 address in a NAT setup, and it hasn't been that much of a privacy disaster. As I see it, nothing is lost on that front. |

It is not identical unless the OS uses a new IP for every new outbound connection. I believe that would qualify as a (very) nonstandard configuration.

Indeed, it was tongue in cheek which is why I went on to point out SSO. The reality is most people aren't willing to sacrifice convenience to retain even a shred of privacy.
If you are one of the few who care then you can implement one of the many possible non-standard solutions.
