Apparently I'm becoming the guy at work who reliably asks "What about #IPV6 ?" 
@smartperson Anyone who is not asking about #IPv6 where new hardware or software is developed is making a mistake. There are already situations where users end up in an IPv6-only environment. If your "smart IoT device" or "revolutionary application" doesn't support IPv6, it'll break in those cases and should be considered defective!
@namedbird I guess that's why they pay me the moderate bucks lol

@smartperson don't feel bad I email my ISP's support email asking "when ipv6"
