They will eventually learn that with IPv6 there is no predictable correspondence between machine and the number of addresses it has. Since their customers will insist on using the privacy option to avoid traceability as they move around, every node will have as many addresses per day as the customer believes are necessary to mask that movement. In this context, movement does not only imply physically moving the device, but the logical movement from one web shopping site to another. It is reasonable to expect the paranoid to set their policy to randomize the address on every new connection. Tony
