If someone else provides IPv6 connectivity to you, you use their bandwidth. Some apps like Steam see IPv6 connectivity and use it regardless of what you'd prefer it to use, hinting mechanisms and all. So while I just wanted to use the tunnel for things that IPv4 does not provide, I always end up tunneling half my traffic over it, which free services don't like.
