And by that Eliezer means that all websites using IP address as a part
of in their session key security will simply stop working.

For example; shopping carts that dont require you to login first, web
forms with multiple pages, most types of webmail accounts, most banking
sites, many HTTPS websites, a lot of smartphone apps, ...

The problem for these systems is bad enough with IPv6 so-called "privacy
addressing" changing the IP every 30 minutes.
