Somehow, I don't see this happening.

Most ISP's probably know a little bit about gaming because the engineers
have a console at home, or in the NOC. To get them to a level where they
are actively asking customers not to buy games developed for Sony, at
scale, is probably an entire project on its own that a basic ISP can't
justify time for.

Also, it's unlikely that end-users are going to listen to advice not to
buy Sony games. All they'll hear is, "My ISP doesn't know how to fix
this, so I must find another one that does".

We need a better plan.

As with everything in life, it probably comes down to a "Vijay Gill
moving ATDN to IS-IS" type-thing, i.e., an actual person that
understands what to do, cares about IPv6, and has influence within Sony.

Mark.
