      Meanwhile my "5G" connection barely gets me 30-50mbps speeds.

        Anyhow, I'm a MBA in Telecommunications and HRM, so I know what I'm talking about.
        Low frequency communication (with high wavelength) is:- far reaching, less penetrating when it comes to walls or so, and generally carries low information as such.
        High frequency (with low wavelength), the direction we are seeking, has lesser range, and is more penetrating in terms of walls and so, but can carry high information content. Which means far more fun, but hugely more infrastructure needed to support it.
        You can check on Google if you want.

        Overall the thing is, we've come to a point where its more intelligent to equip every building with accessable wifi with wired back end, and on cellular network, we need a reasonable data speed but a far more reliable cellular network.
        Unless we go the satellite way for 6G, then its a different matter altogether.

                              6G is the future ftw

                                People and companies are so obsessed with this connected future, they don't realize they already have all they need, and that by advancing the technology all they're doing is opening the door for more people to turn to the internet as a way to shut the world out. Very very few people will benefit from 6G in a meaningful way, just like few people have benefited from 5G in a meaningful way. I personally think it's time we start talking about the safety of these technologies. Call it a conspiracy theory if you wish, but the fact of the matter is that the only cellular technology that's been tested for safety is 3G, and that one study made the conclusion that being exposed to 3G radio signals caused considerably increased cancer rates in rats. Shouldn't we be having these conversations about the safety of the technology, knowing that 3G itself causes increased cancer rates in mammals? Shouldn't there be transparency, education, and extensive testing done on new technologies like this?

                                Just some food for thought. I doubt it'll make any difference but if anyone feels like reading it, here's the original study from 2018:
