FBI: New Internet addresses could hinder police investigations

Authored by: JamesK on Tuesday, June 05 2012 @ 01:50 PM EDT

{
So all those random IPv6 addresses still point to you!
}

That assumes you have a subnet. I get my IPv6 connection from a 6in4 tunnel
broker. Depending on how you configure the client, you get either a single
address or a subnet. My firewall/router is configured to get a subnet and my
ThinkPad is configured to get a single address, when I'm away from home. So, if
I use that ThinkPad at home, I will get an address on my subnet. But if I'm
away from home, I get an address on the tunnel broker's subnet. When ISPs
provide subnets, they'll still have to provide single addresses, which can be
used by a router to carry your subnet or by a device that only needs a single
address.
