[dreamy mood on]
- If EU governments would declare that copyrighted content sharing over ipv6
network is
completely legal, then we get immediately a huge demand. It could be limited
in time to, say,
5 years.
Useless, and even if it was not legal, already done on a very grand scale. Fixed your subject for you btw.
it actually would motivate people who use P2P today to move to a more legal side.
- With the introduction of ipv6, there's a chance to replace our poor old
SMTP with
something more protected from spamming. I wonder if anyone has done anything
in this direction.
I guess everyone is going to use the same delivery mechanisms as in ipv4, but
isn't that wrong?
How exactly would an IP protocol protect against spam (layer 7 / content) ?
If you read carefully, I dream of a new application-level protocol instead of SMTP. Anyway transition to ipv6 requires some significant IT effort, so this could be combined with upgrading their mail servers to some hypothetically new mail transfer protocol.
