Re: Important IPv6 Policy Issue -- Your Input Requested

I have devices that have no need, never will have a need, to ever
talk outside of the internal networks, nor do I want some
brain dead user to drop some stupid little device on the network
and tada, route access to some of my inside network simply because
the addresses are valid.  I want my inside addresses to be
non accessible from the 'real world', ever.

this is a routing problem, not an addressing problem.  trying
to make it an addressing problem will end you with messes that
we have today with 1918, for which you can read years of email
on this list of "why can't i get to, through, reply, ...?"
