Africa Leads In IPv6 Adoption

Ian Lamont writes "The recent news that China will run out of IPv4 addresses in a few years points to slow adoption of IPv6 in some developed countries. Now it turns out that the largest number of networks displaying new IPv6 address blocks are registered through AfriNIC, which services networks in Africa and the Indian Ocean. While AfriNIC has a smaller installed base than other regions, many countries in Africa are showing rapid growth in terms of online connectivity."

    Being modded funny doesn't mean they didn't believe you - true things can be funny too, although perhaps this is only funny in a "well, you've gotta laugh or you'd cry" kind of way.
