High speeds aren’t just for you to destroy your data plan in 10 seconds.
It’s for when everyone at the same time trying to download something so they can provide a good experience in the worst case scenarios.
Comment on Is it time for 6G already? Traffic analysis says yep

If the carriers keep offering 10GB per month or “unlimited” plans, why I would want to spend the whole big amount in 5 seconds?
I don’t see the point there.

Every generation boosts capacity. Speed increase is just a side effect which is easy to market. 5G didn’t bring enough capacity as its roll out was too late. 6G is too late now as well. We need something like 10G and we need it yesterday.

The price per GB in the US is truly awful. I’m also not interested at all in higher speeds with a data plan that costs $1 per GB downloaded. Fuck that.
