It's not too surprising to see SPAWAR [0] up so high; the US Department of Defense has required IPv6 compatibility for devices being added to their networks for a while now (I think around 2003)[1]. If you scroll a bit further down the list, Defense Research and Engineering Network (DREN) is at 8.32% as well.<p>[0]: <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_and_Naval_Warfare_Systems_Command" rel="nofollow">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_and_Naval_Warfare_Systems...</a><p>[1]: <a href="http://www.usipv6.com/ppt/IPv6SummitPresentationFinalCaptDixon.pdf" rel="nofollow">http://www.usipv6.com/ppt/IPv6SummitPresentationFinalCaptDix...</a>
At first read I thought the headline meant that 25% of consumer traffic was going to IPv6 sites, which seems impossibly high. But the article says "This reflects the fact that IPv6 is part of Verizon’s rollout of LTE". Does that mean IPv6 is all just internal in Verizon's network and invisible to consumers? If I have an LTE iPhone on Verizon, is it even capable of talking to an IPv6 site?<p>Related, from links in the article: Google has a graph showing that over 1% of their users now have IPv6 available. <a href="http://www.google.com/ipv6/statistics.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.google.com/ipv6/statistics.html</a>
