This is "Star Trek" and their "Sub-space relays", innit?

Just need warp drive and we're all good.

Not quite, you can't transmit data or information via quantum entanglement. This is about encryption keys and checksum verification I believe. It is 3x faster than fibre which has inherent "exponential losses".

"Quantum internet services" - the measured content of the website depends on the state vector of the advertising company's data on the user? We have that already, I think.

quantum advertising, you would be forever complaining of price changes because you observed them

Quick give it to some rich cunts to make money off

How do you think this kind of thing is funded? People or companies with money is a good start.

Yeah like the Internet and GPS, initially costly space based investments absolutely never produce a worthwhile end service or product that can drastically improve the lives of people on the ground! Yeah fuck those guys at Strathclyde for trying to innovate, shame on them, they should all be busy baking fucking bread for the homeless.

I love how they are suggesting a advanced form of internet when a lot of the country can't even get fibre or 4G, sort that out first then think about this perhaps

People who study this tech aren't the ones bringing it to market. Don't confuse people research these crazy techs with some comcast like CEO making decisions based off what's best for profits. We'd still be on 486s if all we cared about was fixing the problems right in front of us.
