It’s Time To Rethink 6G.

Yeah this whole article fell pretty flat with me and this analogy especially. I'd sure as hell like faster air travel and sure, I'm pretty sure I'll find a use for faster mobile connections too. Agree I'd much rather see better coverage maps with 5G than a speed bump in the select areas where I do get a good 5G connection, but seems likely that eventually there will either be some demand for 6G speeds or it will at least become cheap enough to implement as a marketing tool by telecoms.

Only because it is highly regulated. The FAIs have to allow everyone access to the network. Free wouldn't exist if it wasn't for that.

True, but nothing was stopping the public company from lowering their prices and improving their service.

Society does indeed. Hydro Quebec gives back something like $3B a year that is reinvested into various government services.

just as there may still be executives or world leaders who continue to look forward to spanning the globe at supersonic speeds.
They should stop. Their luxury makes the earth warmer faster for everyone.

That's a cool resource. Ty

It's like fiber rollout. Won't happen except for the rich neighborhoods meanwhile the telcos take all the money meant to help them roll it out nationwide and spend it on infrastructure except fiber.

Do you know what the signal bar on a phone actually represents?
Thoughts and prayers. It will even lie about the technology in use (e.g. it may display "5G" while connected to a "4G LTE" cell if that cell supports 5G EN-DC, regardless of if the feature is actually in use).

I dearly miss my little mag mount antenna for my nokia 5120. Couod make an analog phone call from anywhere in the county. Cant do it today really

I think 4G is capable of enough speed, but doesn't always deliver even close to it. So really the preference would be something that can increase the minimum typical speed more than focus just on maximum speed. Presumably that means good signal range and penetration.
