alt Hacker NewsIPv6 is already here if you're not in the US. I moved house last month and consumer ISPs don't offer a (real) IPv4 connection in my country any more; you get an IPv6 connection and your router does MAP-E if you want to send data over IPv4.

I want to echo this comment. I am on Map-e in Asia and it is very difficult to get an exclusive ipv4 address without paying extra money.
And I want to connect to my machines without some stupid vpn or crappy cloud reverse tunneling service. Not everyone in the world wants to subscribe to some stupid SaaS service just to get functionality that comes by default with ipv6.
I think Silicon Valley is in a thought bubble and for people there ipv4 is plentiful and cheap. So good for them. However, the more these SaaS services delay ipv6 support, the more I pray to any deity out there I can move off these services permanently.
