As much of the world nears an Internet address crunch, North America stands as an island apart, threatening to fragment plans for the biggest overhaul of the Web in decades.

I see it's somehow become North America's fault.

The standard is widely seen as a necessary successor to the current IPv4 system, which some fear could run short of addresses in Asia and Europe within the next few years.

Screw Europe and Asia. Let them get their own Internet!

Yeah... we invent it... the Chinese need billions of more machines to host our criminal element, flogging H*E*R*B*A*L**V*I*A*G*R*A and other scams, so we are supposed to make it easy for them.

Actually, now that DOD SIPRNET is going V6 with DOD NIPRNET right behind, it's only a matter of time until the major vendors and major ISPs are fully behind it. It will appear in backbones first (the first 6bone was running in the USA in the nineties already). It will be pretty transparent to end users... but there are big benefits for ISPs in security, quality of service, and traffic prioritization.

By the way, guess which continent V6 was invented on.

d.o.l.

Of course its our fault, we invented the internet and the world wide web, and let the world use it. This is how the world pays back america....with blame.
