Correct me if I'm wrong, but the Japanese government did two things:
- tax incentivise ipv6 compliance
- make meaningful ipv6 compliance mandatory when dealing with Japanese
government technical contracts.
The effect of this was to 1) create a direct financial incentive to deploy
meaningfully, and 2) create an indirect financial incentive to deploy ipv6
meaningfully. Spot the pattern here?
