<p>So you want to transfer ipv4, which has an open market value of over 1M USD PER /16, from developing economies to rich countries so they can continue to do ipv4 with cgn, and not do ipv6?</p>
<p>Does this not raise "substantial digital divide " concerns ?</p>
<p>I assume you are truly looking at this from an ipv6 advocacy pov, but it is clearly the road to hell imho.</p>
