it never caught up for us. we get the shitty old low bandwidth facebook internet.
it never caught up for us. we get the shitty old low bandwidth facebook internet.
anyone with eyes to see knows that our homes have two active internet connections. one that we installed and we give names like "billy-bobs wifi". but there is another one that we didn't install. one installed by the power company that we were told makes meter readers jobs easier. its exactly the same as your linksys you bought at best buy, except instead of using your phone or cable lines it uses the same connection that your power comes in on. what clued me in was the little dsl phone jacks. the filter that cancels out the internet signal to allow you to make phone calls on the same line your internet comes through. it seems like a fairly simple matter to modulate a signal so it can be passed alongside another signal. especially one that flows in at a stable 60 hz. so our internet is obsolete. who knew?! and then you factor in the devices that constitute the internet of things. I'll bet somebody can build in just a hair more processing power than is required and use that extra capacity to do useful things. like build wealth. I recently heard that Cadillac (gm) mines bitcoins in their onboard computer system. if you had an all encompassing secret wifi system you wouldn't have to worry about bandwidth. this new internet would be an uncluttered information superhighway, an autobahn where you could do anything you want, undetected. depends on what you want to do though, doesnt it?
