    In any next generation of cell phone networks, the providers should be forced to fill up all blind spots on the network with the new technology before they are allowed to upgrade existing networks.

      They certainly shouldn’t be allowed to sell 6G contracts when they’ve got the grand total of four towers up and an estimated completion plan way off in 2039.

    None of this makes sense!

    With 3G, we had clearly defined speeds, and what constitutes 3G.

    4G mostly defined itself, but it left a bit of grey area.

    Then 5G was posting speeds slower than 4G’s top speed. There was never a defined speed range. The term 5G is nothing more than marketing. It means nothing.

    I haven’t even heard of 6G, but given how shit 5G’s handling went right from the start, I assume 6G has to be inserted anally.
