        Impressive - you have eleven networks, each with 4294311936x10 to the 
32nd number of nodes?  My goodness thats a lot of nodes.  Bigger than the 
Internet, larger than the
        projected IoT…..     And every single one of those addresses is used?   
I'd dearly love to see your technical deployment plan for such a huge network.  
 Is it on file with RIPE?

        Or perhaps you are really only using a single digits of IPv6 address in 
that range of trillions of actual addresses?   And you won't mind if I forge 
source addresses into your darkspace,
        just so I can hide my tracks?   Thanks ever so.

        Pragmatically, much of the IPv6 protocol/application development has 
ignored half the 128bit space and treats IPv6 as a 64bit address platform.
