Hi:
I'm doing an article on IPv6 and am looking for comments - here is a portion on IPv6 which relates to the privacy issue ... any comments, crtics or interviews welcomed.
-- snip As you know IPv6 is a suite of protocols for the network layer of the Internet which uses IPv4 gateways. It's purpose is to expand address space. At this time IPv6 comes prepackaged with all popular operating systems. This includes all flavours of unix , windows and Mac OS.
Windows? I don't think so, not yet anyways
Yes, Windows. Today. Now. But you must explicitly enable it at this time. I have been told that it will come enabled sith Windows XP SP2. I don't know exactly when SP2 is scheduled for release. R.
