Why do we need an alternative to mobile
A Life / / December 19, 2019
About 6 billion people already use mobile communication, ie 80% of the Earth have already discovered all its advantages. Now we can not even think of a world without mobile phones, but does this mean that we are all in captivity mobile operators, and that we should think about finding alternatives to the most important and advanced wireless systems the world?
Already, many people prefer to use online services such as Skype and Viber, because in most cases it is cheaper than making calls. But despite this, these online services are completely invisible against the background of its main competitor. I wonder why this is happening, because the VoIP-telephony (Voice over IP) has enough advantages over cellular communications. Perhaps the only drawback of VoIP-telephony is that it is difficult to keep track of the call (Big Brother angry), so calls to emergency numbers can not accurately direct your call to a nearby place reception.
So after all, why should a mobile communication alternatives we need?
- Let's imagine for a second that mobile communication has disappeared. What will happen immediately? Panic. The hardest people to have up to 20 years, because they were born and grew up in a time when cellular systems have already been developed and can not imagine their life without them. Further, it is necessary to urgently or to develop alternative methods of communication, or popularize old (such as radio) that will lead either to the evolution of communication, or to return to the past.
- Compared to Internet communications, mobile communications over the road. And if you compare the SMS messages with messages in iMessage and Whatsapp, it becomes all clear how these services have not yet seized the palm from the mobile operators.
- Insecurity. And I mean not only the all-seeing eye of our governments, but also the fact that the protection of sim-cards, which until recently was the last step in the total cracking of all things, was finally hacked and now there is nothing to separate your information from potential theft.
- Total surveillance. In it, you can believe, you can not believe it, but the latest news related to Edward Snowden, tell us that believe it makes sense. Although, you can be sure that with the advent of mobile communication alternatives will be new opportunities for total surveillance.
Do you think that mobile communication in its present form does need an alternative?
