Indeed, 'they' have known this for quite some time... It's not like someone has just reached into a box to get a fresh address and realised there aren't any left. :xD:

Indeed, you might want to read up on IPv6, there are quite a few more addresses than IPv4... :D

The interesting thing about IPv6 is that it guarantees virtually every human being an IP address. It can become a human right akin to life and freedom :/

Iirc we should have as much IP addresses as there are sand particles on this world with IPv6 :/
