$ ping www.google.com
PING www.google.com (2607:f8b0:4002:c1b::68) 56 data bytes
64 bytes from yt-in-f104.1e100.net (2607:f8b0:4002:c1b::68): icmp_seq=1 ttl=106 time=14.3 ms
 . . .

The traceroute is also all IPv6 on this box.

Same for www.microsoft.com.

For github.com, on the other hand, it is IPv4.
