Simply: buying ipv4 not only feeds the global "digital divide", it actively hurts those that are trying to make a more inclusive global end-to-end internet. Users dont know or care about ipv4. Great businesses dont make decision on narrow near term shallow business cases.
Sure, I agree with your statement. However, I do not see how it applies to us. We are deploying IPv6 (soon) and we are not buying IPv4 for postponing IPv6 rollout. We do it because we don't like the IPv4 over IPv6 mechanisms, and want to delay the use of it as long as it economically viable, which it is as of today. This does not fuel the "digital divide" in any other way than CGN/MAP/lw4o6+++.
