I didn't claim Fedora was US-only.  I did point out a large group
of Fedora users who have no effective access to IPv6.  For such
users, leaving IPv6 enabled is a security risk.  Fedora should
make it easy (perhaps even the default) to *propagate* "Disable IPv6"
from the anaconda installer into the resulting installed system.
