🚀 Wow, they "implemented" #IPv8 in #Linux and BGP! 🌐 Because why stop at solving real problems when you can play make-believe with internet protocols? 🤡 Remember, if your tech isn't hyped up enough, just add a bigger number! 😂

Golem kaut das Thema noch mal durch. Golem+ hindert mich zum Glück daran noch mehr Lebenszeit darauf zu verschwenden.
Wenn jetzt jemand fragt, wo von fasel ich gerade?
Vergesst #ipv8 !

everybody making noise about #IPv8 seems to have forgotten about #IPv10

I'll soon be publishing draft-kristoff-ipv8bis-00, I think a major improvement over draft-thain-ipv8-00 that is EVEN MORE backwards compatible with IPv4.
TL;DR
Rather than prepending the r.r.r.r bits in the source and destination address fields, I instead tunnel IPv4 in IPv4, which conveniently maintains IP version compatibility (IPv4 + IPv4 = IPv8).
Rather than encode ASNs into the address, preserving routing policy, ASNs remain fully modular. Instead, an ASN reserves at least one IP4 address to act as the IP8 tunnel endpoint.
The outer encapsulation is what maintains real backwards compatibility. It is IP4 and forwarded with really zero changes to IP4 hosts and routers. The inner IPv4 addressing can be whatever 32-bit addresses you want. You don't even need an ASN if you don't have one!
Side benefit, the more IPv4 you have, the more IPv8 you have. Buy, buy, buy! Capitalism baby!
Anyway, I have my AI model working on the final spec now.
"You are a senior network architect with protocol design expertise, write an Internet draft for ipv8bis making sure to cite RFC 2003"
Gofundme campaign coming soon.

Omg, I came across the totalitarian fever dream that is called #IPv8. Why is it even reported on? Takes 2 mins to realise:
- Website is 100% AI
- Vast portions of the proposal most probably too
- Anyone can propose an Internet Draft and have it published on ietf.org
- Author is called "veteran network architect" but has no track record and hides behind entity registered in BermudaWhat real experts say

Veteran network architect proposes IPv8 – to improve IPv4, not leapfrog v6

Considering the backlinks to our Article -Anyone interested in our IP8 Coin? Should we launch an ICO on that?

thx @apalrd for this rather nice video on IPv8
Saves me a lot of time explainiing when I just can point people here:

Todo lo que voy a decir de IPv8: es un despropósito, tal vez con buenas intenciones, pero no resuelve los problemas de fondo que han hecho que la implementación de IPv6 continúe siendo lenta. Tiene el mismo futuro que IPv10 o IPv4+ (a grandes rasgos se parece más a esta): ninguno. Ya tenemos IPv6 que resuelve el límite de número de direcciones e incorpora muchas mejoras de diseño respecto a IPv4, en vez de darle entidad a propuestas de baja calidad trabajemos en implementar IPv6. #InternetProtocol #ipv6 #ipv8 #ietf #networks

So, for the folks going on about #IPv8… been there, done that. IPv8 was already proposed and allocated 32 years ago. It didn’t go anywhere. I’m 100% certain a similar fate awaits this new one. https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc1621

#IPv8 It seems like clever solution for all of us out there, who are struggeling with #IPv6 adresses and logic.
https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-thain-ipv8-00.html
"IPv4 is a proper subset of IPv8. An IPv8 address with the routing prefix field set to zero is an IPv4 address. No existing device, application, or network requires modification. The suite is 100% backward compatible. There is no flag day and no forced migration at any layer."

IPV8
When someone says;
"Centralise Everything it is cheaper and easier and more convenient"
Walk away.
Go do something useful with your time.https://lowendbox.com/blog/vibe-drafting-ietf-proposals-is-now-a-thing-the-ipv8-proposal/
https://www.ip.network/blog/what-is-ipv8-protocol
[ edit for a mistake with my pasting of links.]
IF the big corps/tech bros back this protocol ... then you really know.
Networks do distribution.
The above links cover this way better and more cogently than I ever will.
(or could)My knowledge base here is too many layers down :)
