    Not at all only. At times you have both IPv6 and IPv4 and other times you can still get IPv4 at no additional cost like when you run your own router or modem. The layperson will be given IPv6 by default, but it’s not the only thing you can get.

      Yes only. Note that I said “new ISPs”.

      The older ISPs already own all IPv4 blocks, so while they can still give them out to private or professional customers, it would be stupid to sell the blocks to competitors.
