The community mourns the loss of Kevin Loch, the owner of the websites ip4.me and ip6.me, which served as popular connectivity test tools. Users have expressed their gratitude for the ad-free, straightforward design of these sites, highlighting their utility in testing IP connectivity without the clutter found on other sites. Some comments reflect concern for the future of these services, with hopes that they will continue to be maintained for public use, preferably in a charitable context. The potential for these domains to be taken over by commercial interests has raised concerns about their future usability and accessibility.
