5G Reality

This new technology was supposed to change the world and give everyone what they long waiting for. In reality, equipment needs to be upgraded in order to get the full features of the technology. And it's going to take some time before its true potential is even noticed by consumers. 

All we can do for now is wait and hope that it becomes affordable for everyone.

Netflix Ban

This has long been a problem with Netflix from the start and if they would have set their rules down when the problem started they would not be addressing this.

Since the company started it always tried to accommodate everyone and that was good but for a short time. Netflix never pulled the plug on sharing and consumers still feel entitled that they have the upper hand and that time is now up.

As Netflix begins addressing its problems subscriber rates will gradually increase and before you know it they will eventually become once again a supergiant.

So for all those users who have been sharing accounts for years, let's just say that it was a good ride while it lasted.

HP new Software install

Now I was an HP lover for many years until recently when HP decided to change the way they install software on their new printers. Now you are forced to use their HP smart application using the Microsoft store. 
The only problem I have with this is that you are forced to create an HP account to get access to your printer and that some organizations block access to the Microsoft store making installation a difficult process. Even if you try to install the software manually, HP does not make it easy to install the printer without the HP Smart application. So good luck with installing that software if you do not have access to the Microsoft store. And the lack of being able to add your printer to the WiFi is limited, making this a nightmare for network administrators.
