But you completely forgot to tell us the addresses of these sites...

Bad idea. People should be encouraged to use IPv6, not discouraged.

If you do not have IPv6 connection, it would be useless.

BIND 9 is "IPv6 enabled" in two very different ways: it has IPv6
transport (which you stopped with listen-on-v6) and it can serve IPv6
data (AAAA records). I cannot check if you have IPv6 data (since you
completely forgot to tell us the addresses of these sites) but it may
be something to consider.
