The Next Net

Posted by Zonk on from the interweb-2.0 dept.

Qa32 wrote to give a heads up on a BBC article discussing the IETF's plans for the future, including information on VoIP, IPv6, and security concerns. From the article: "Given the net was designed for the whole community, it has done well to reach millions. If you want to reach the whole population, you have to make sure it can scale up."

      I hear there's rumors of that on those internets. It's clear we need to get rid of the bad internets and keep only the good internets.

      Besides, I'm sure Kerry created the internet while on a swift boat.

    IPV6 will never see large scale use.

    Only fucking brits and chinks want to use it. No one cares about them.
    Real red blooded americans will always use IPV4.
