Well anything that connects to the internet uses an IP address we are going to run out so that means we will supposedly not be able to access the internet

yeah, you didn't even read your own article.

"Though Google says the vast majority of Internet users should be unaffected by IPv6 day, some may run into connection problems depending on how their devices are configured. The World IPv6 Day Web site offers a test that people can run to see if their own PCs and their Internet providers are set up to handle the new protocol."

That is the EXACT opposite of your point. You said no more Newschoolers, but yet you are now agreeing that Newschoolers will still be up.

god dammit, i work in IT, let me clear this up:

some organizations use IPv4 addresses, most are upped to IPv6 which has some 304 quadrillion addressses or some shit like that.

IP address leases are controlled by IANA (Internet Assigned Numbers Authority)yes, one can actually BUY these adresses. It's sort of like an internet PO Box. Most are re-sold through ISPs like comcast, clearwire, verizon, charter, etc etc there are thousands. they buy ranges of addresses, and dole them out to customers as need be. alot of ISPs offer the option to buy a 'static ip address' meaning it remains the same (this is useful for websites/DNS servers that need to remain the same to make the internet work efficiently).

don't worry guys, the internet is still gonna work once IPv4 address space is filled up

340,282,366,920,938,463,463,374,607,431,768,211,456 addresses....

NS isnt going anywhere. HTTP packets and webservers are already compatible with IPv6

Yes but anyone using Xp or earlier will have to buy 7 does have the capabilities of switching to IPv6 and if NS is hosting in IPv4 then theres the chance that they will be off the grid givin their IP is restablished every day or so...you have a valid point.....but "NS already has an IP address" COME ON
