"silence is consent" ....???

Once someone has a unique, persistent, 32-bit "site id", they can
use FREE IPv8 addressing...which is compatible with IPv6....and can
be routed across the legacy IPv4 transport...in the short run...

...silence may mean that people are busy routing around the
fees, taxes, etc. of the government-backed IPv4 implosion...
