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.

    this, with his communist, pro-censorship views he'd fit in very well in China's authoritarian regime.

    Freedom for its citizens.

    I'm glad China is catching up in technology to the rest of the world, but the government still hasn't caught up with the rest of the civilized world in political, religious, economic freedom.

  4. Plenty of bandwidth by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Troll

    Yeah, there's plenty of bandwidth to spare on this network because only 12 people in China have computers and only 3 of them have internet access.

    China should work on rolling out donkey-powered electronics next.

    There is, actually, a dark side to the PRC's
    adoption of IPv6. There will be no way for
    any dissident to hide behind a NATed IPv4
    address. Everyone will have their own static
    IP address assigned to them, so there will
    not be any anonimity to hide behind.

    In the Soviet PRC, the Internet owns YOU!
