IPv6 Buzz 021: NAT Isn’t Necessary For Security: Answering Listener Questions

In today’s IPv6 Buzz we answer listener questions about our favorite addressing protocol, including

I tend to disable IPv6 whenever I can. Is that bad?
How feasible is it to scan an IPv6 network to discover devices?

Thanks for listening (and keep the questions coming)!
