Ars Technica on IPv4 exhaustion

They have one on www.cablelabs.com, but it's not reachable:

root at nagios:/home/fbulk# dig AAAA www.cablelabs.com +short
2620:0:2b10:101::3
root at nagios:/home/fbulk# wget -6 www.cablelabs.com
--2014-06-22 21:17:31--  http://www.cablelabs.com/
Resolving www.cablelabs.com... 2620:0:2b10:101::3
Connecting to www.cablelabs.com|2620:0:2b10:101::3|:80... failed: Network is unreachable.
root at nagios:/home/fbulk#

It's been so long that I had forgotten that I had suggested they remove the AAAA while they don't actually have IPv6 connectivity.  Perhaps they want to see how well Happy Eyeballs works. =)

Www.cablelabs.com does have a AAAA, it's just that cablelabs.com doesn't.
Unfortunately all too common. We're also leaning on them to be more
complete in their IPv6 support.
