How's it done with IPv6, generally? Are there setups where everyone is sharing a v6 IP? We could eventually get to the point where a reverse DNS lookup is all that's needed for everyone if things were set up smartly. Probably a better setup for things to work, but worse for passive surveillance. (though, IPv6 could eventually let clients randomize their IP frequently, which helps some things; getting off-topic here, though) > > I don't really see this as viable or worth the effort. > > Agree. I agree that it's a lot of effort for relatively little gain. I might be worth considering, but if the consensus is that TLS just isn't designed to do this easily enough to be worth it, then I don't really dispute a decision to just drop the concept.
