We've come a long way.

0.3% of internet users to 34%

I'm still amazed at how many people will say "CG-NAT" is all you need. People don't want globally routable addresses.

Probably the same kind of person that says 10mbps upload speed is all anyone would ever want.

A big chunk of the ipv6 adoption is from wireless and VPS providers. Amazon, Verizon, T-Mobile, etc... Consumer ISP adoption is still rather low. I don't have the link handy, though it came up in a past discussion here.

Globally routable addresses are bad for privacy.

Thanks for proving my point.

People like you don't want to give users a choice.
