New data shows the number of new mobile internet users is stalling (restofworld.org)

57% of the population is already connected to mobile internet.

In Pakistan, Nigeria, and Mexico, the rate of new mobile internet subscriber growth is slowing.

The remaining populations will be harder, and more expensive, to get online.

I am just a data hog for the most part. I’m always playing something on some service when I’m out of the house.

Having 5G makes no sense when it only goes as fast as 2008 3G

Interesting, because I use very little data. The vast majority of my phone use is at home on WiFi, with most of the rest being at work on WiFi.
