#1 NAT advantage: it protects consumers from vendor

Speaking of FUD... NAT does nothing here that is not also accomplished
through the use of PI addressing.
True, diy PI (mmm, PI) is a major reason people use it for v4 and why

Hi all,
Sorry for the cross posting to a number of lists but this is an
important topic for many of you (especially if you get multiple copies).

There are no British colonies in North America...are there? Or are the

No, but there are a large number of American operators that
have networks in the UK and this +will+ affect them. There is
also the fear that once this is deployed in one country that
