More on China's IPv6 Network Buildout

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the go-big-or-go-home dept.

photojournaliste writes "China has developed and demonstrated its first high-performance network core router based on the next-generation Internet standard known as IPv6, which the country officially inaugurated earlier this week." There's also a CNet story, which has a bit more information than our earlier story.

  1. Communism and the internet. by DanielJosphXhan · · Score: 1, Offtopic

    One has to wonder what vested interest China has in implementing new protocols, especially with a view to becoming a leader amongst world powers when it comes to the internet. Especially when one factors in the way information is controlled (alright, less and less, but still controlled) in China at the moment.

    Isn't this self-defeating for a communist country as it exists now?
