IPv6:
a
disrupSve
Internet
change/innovaSon?
Amara’s
Law
says
that
we
tend
to
overesSmate
the
effect
of
a
technology
in
the
short
run
and
underesSmate
the
effect
in
the
long
run.
(…)
A
latent
capability
develops,
and
when
the
final
pieces
fall
together,
a
big
swing
occurs.
(…)
That
seems
to
be
happening
for
some
of
the
largest
operators
in
the
world,
such
as
Verizon
Wireless,
T-­‐Mobile,
AT&T,
and
Comcast
reaching
very
high
numbers
in
the
US.
With
some
of
these
operators,
most
of
the
served
users
have
IPv6
capability.

While
there
is
a
lot
of
innovaSon
and
change
in
the
Internet,
many
of
us
have
been
accustomed
to
the
basic
Internet
technology
changing
slowly.
But
when
the
right
parts
come
together,
the
changes
can
actually
be
surprisingly
dramaSc
and
sudden.
The
future
is
here,
now.
