Chatting with the AC forums.
In both 2019 and 2020, one of the biggest talking points for the mobile tech industry has been 5G. The next evolution of mobile internet access has the potential to change our world for the better, but the journey to get to that point is a long and bumpy one.
This has been the year when 5G has become truly accessible to a large number of people, but even so, these early days are proving to be pretty mixed. For example, while sub-6 5G is almost as widespread as 4G LTE, the speed increase is pretty marginal compared to the much more powerful mmWave 5G.
Some of our AC forum members recently got to talking about 5G, saying:

Perhaps Verizon will push to put mini-substations into homes before it's widely available. They'd have to spin-up something more attractive than Fios to win me over.

But Verizon would want me to pay for it. Not willing to pay for something that should be free. If this is what 5G is all about.. Why not just stop 5G right now. And quit wasting people's time
