We already have things like Meshtastic, with much bigger range, separate devices and bridges to our phones. Why create something inferior?
reply
True, but...
- meshtastic devices ara cheap,
- bluetooth chips on phones are not equal, so diminished reliability,
- bluetooth signal is easily jammable,
- there's a tendency to "steal" our privacy on phones by manufacturers and govts, so this also limits possible usage.
I might have jumped the gun with my comment, but in all seriousness I can't see it as more than a toy for peace times. For serious usage it's not enough.
