@lupyuen to be honest, i'd rather see them finally deploying enough 4G so that i'll have coverage everywhere instead of investing in the next thing, but it's such an oglyopoly here they really don't have a reason to invest anything 🤷 that 3G is phased out meanwhile just means that there is either 4G service or 2G, which isn't really cutting it anymore 😛

regarding the politicians, they are still aboard the 5G hype-train i fear 🙂

@lupyuen but nobody buys their 5G equipment anymore out of fearing espionage, as if the other countries which produce such things (i don't know if any but the USA are left) would spy less 😁

i'm not sure if the demand for 5G is fabricated by china, since a few years ago politicians in europe were/are hyped for anything that gives them an edge over the dominance of the USA, including IOT, blockchain, really anything "cyber" 😉

@lupyuen i haven't really thought about that. maybe then they finally have a reason for widespread camera rollout: "now that we have this fine 5G network, we've gotta use it!!1" :)

@lupyuen supposedly IOT, but i don't really see a must-have use-case which isn't covered by wifi (appliances), 4G (agricultural) or industrial (4G/wifi)..
