content: Why did they push 2g so hard? Why did they push 3g so hard? Why did they push 4g so hard?  Contrary to another reply to you, there is a huge demand for bandwidth. Claiming it's only for fridges is dumb.  He's also completely ignoring that major corporations would like to offer new services (yes, many is the orwell, asshole category). So again, many are in fact demanding it, with money in hand.  For example, Toyota collects around 11,000,000 samples per vehicle per day. Repeat for each car vendor. You really think they are alone (i know for a fact they are not). Not to mention, it's a much less expensive last mile solution for rural locations without copper expense.  You think ranchers don't want to look at their live stock at night?  So on and so on...
