I strongly oppose disabling IPv6 by default. IPv6 is the future, our
hope for avoiding large scale use of Carrier Grade NAT. We should be
encouraging use of IPv6, not disabling it by default. If you want to
disable it yourself then by all means do so, but please don't propose
such a backward policy as the default.

Full disclosure: I have full working IPv6 at home (no gateways
involved), and it does get a fair amount of traffic. Google, Facebook
and a few other well known sites are on IPv6, plus all my DNS traffic.
It's faster, because there is no NAT latency for it. All my IPv6
machines have true worldwide IPv6 addresses, giving full end to end
connectivity the way the Internet was designed to be before NAT got in
the way. I have a firewall of course, you don't need NAT for safety
despite what some people say.
