I am like you and want end-to-end connectivity for my connection.
but I don't want the end-to-end connectivity for my Grandmother.
and users like my Grandmother outnumber users like you and me by something like 1000-1

Of course my Grandmother needs end-to-end connecitvity! Posted Jan 31, 2011 0:24 UTC (Mon) by khim (subscriber, #9252) [Link] but I don't want the end-to-end connectivity for my Grandmother. Why the heck no? How can I help my Grandmother if her computer will not be reachable from outside? But again: SSL gives me what I want, IPv6 does not. Not all people desire end-to-end connectivity, but there are a lot of people who do. Yet IPv6 technologies are designed to provide said end-to-end connectivity to the people who already have it (if they have "white" IPv4 address then they already have end-to-end connectivity and if their firewall supports "UDP hole punching" then there are tons of IPv4 technologies which can be used to establish end-to-end connectivity). DJB's plan is crazy for the same reason: it improves IPv6 accessibility for the people who don't need it!
