Streaming services like Netflix or BBC iPlayer use this information to block users from accessing content from other countries.
IPv4 addresses are running out, and IPv6 addresses are the answer to this. This forces IPv6-compatible websites to support both IPv4 addresses and IPv6 addresses, depending on who is connecting to them. IPv6 leaks are just as dangerous as IPv4 leaks.

Just to comment on your article Ref; Download speeds etc, here in the UK download speeds from torrents are quite exceptional for the time being. We are keeping updated as to the outcomes of some of the legal actions being taken against some distributors by Spain, USA, UK, Germany all are tripling their efforts to shut the Web down if they get their way.
