A discussion for the future: ipv6, good for anonymity?

Good discussion.

FBI & DEA Warn That IPv6 May Be Too Damn Anonymous | Techdirt

Amazon and ebay wont know or will find it very difficult to know form which region we are using the internet.

Quote:

ARIN and the other regional registries maintain public Whois databases for IP addresses, meaning that if you type in 64.30.224.118, you can see that it's registered to CNET's publisher. ARIN tries to ensure that Internet providers keep their segments of the Whois database updated, and because it's been handing out IPv4 addresses blocks every few months, it currently enjoys enough leverage to insist on it.

But for IPv6, ARIN will be handing out much larger Internet address blocks only every 10 to 15 years, meaning it loses much of its ability to convince Internet providers to keep their Whois entries up-to-date. That means it may take law enforcement agencies -- presumably armed with court orders -- longer to trace an IPv6 address such as 2001:4860:4860::8888 back to an Internet service provider's customer.
Of course, some mig

How do you know you'll be able to get more than 1 ip address as easily as you can now? The higher ups are definitely pushing more for less annonymity and I can see in the future everyone having 1 standard static ip

I might be wrong in saying this however, I thought with VMware if you know what you are doing not only can you make virtual machines but can make a clone of a computer receiving an IP that hasnt previously been used with eBay and log into that PC to log into EB & PP.... or am I very wrong?
