That is so.

VoIP would be an exception, but then, on the against side, is p2p, it is
preferable to be anonymous ;-)

About that "properly set up wirewall", I don't have one. I have what my ISP
gave me, which is only capable of v4 things, and limited at that. And if I
go to the local shops, I'm sure I would only find similar adsl routers,
none capable of ipv6 - which would be useless because the providers do not
offer it.

I would need a box capable of tunneling over IPv4, and I wouldn't have the
foggiest idea what to buy. And it would be expensive, so I'll better wait
till the ISPs do their move.

I have no hurry :-)
