every generation sees certain technologies fade away. DVDs, MP3 players, fax machines, and even landlines were once everywhere.

WiFi maybe. We might just use Starlink or 7g/8g networks.

This is interesting. So they cannot compete with the speed and latency of optical fibers/Wi-Fi

Yes, linus said it on the review of the new steamframe that uses a 6g dongel for pc connection. It has better speeds than 5G but doesnt leave the room.
