Wait. It's not possible to change a law?

You....literally didn't respond to anything that I said.
Your own cited article says they are having issues already with being constrained by limitations of how much data they can put in frequencies, and there is a BIG arse difference between the statement that the service being available at ALL vs it being the primary.
You

Put

And again....latency issues are still there.
Most users won't care, but there are many who will.

Huh. Your style of arguing is very similar. (Did not mean that question as an offense, but your points are very similar in reasoning.)

You're sounding like a flat earther. Some wireless options require minimal ifrastucture upgrades

5-10 years you'll most likely have wireless internet to your home

Free market? In many areas one or two companies own all the physical infrastructure and service the entire area. You feel the ISPs and cable companies are providing a high level of service now? If so, you have very low expectations as a consumer. These companies are already among the worst of the worst in terms of value and customer service.
You want them to assign dollar value to specific 0s and 1s?
Not very bright.

You have no other way to power home except your local power grid? Generators and solar panels just don’t exist
Just for the record since you guys think this is a gotcha. Those in fact are competitors
What are the cost of producing electricity on the grid to climb to unreasonable levels then all of the alternatives would be used at a greater level
Gas is also an alternative to the grid which is why some people have gas heat instead of electric heat and gas ovens instead of electric ovens.
The fact I can provide you a widget for a price you are willing to pay over my competitors widget doesn't make them not my competitor
How do you people not get this?

sighhhhh, wireless capabilities still has limitations compared to a fixed wired connection

why do that when the QoS with a wired connection is better?

Okay. Is a Kia a competitor to a BMW? How about a motorcycle? How about a moped?

No they don't. What is going on now is an FCC ruling within the current regulatory framework passed by Congress.
Congress can change that framework whenever they please. They don't need the FCC to damn thing before they can change the law.
Sorry, poor wording. They would have to undo the re-classification. Better?

It will not be better in a few years
Wireless is in your future. Get used to it

I flat out SAID the technology is there in an earlier post.
The part where you are wrong is the statement that it will ever be the primary.
Or at least inside of the 50 year technology window.

Because the vast majority (I'd guess 95%) don't have the latency and QoS requirements us ubergeeks do.
Which is going to hurt the wired ISPs and force them to offer better and better service.

Probably somewhere around the part that you aren't getting that this entire thread is about trying to change the law/classifications
I mean this is basically a giant discussion on ways to fix something that you say is currently not possible to do.
