Maybe Google will start out selling native IPv6?

Even if they don't, odds are that there won't be very many hiding behind 
a consumer-grade IP, and knowing that data in aggregate will still be 
useful. All the IP's hiding behind that one public one are likely the 
same household anyway.

Now, if somebody set-up a Tor cloud on the fiber network or something, 
THAT would give the data collectors fits.
