So recently they just deployed what is called "Super WiFi" in the US. It's in a lower frequency band which allows it to travel a greater distance
than your typical WiFi as well as the ability to penetrate through surfaces. Right now there is currently only 1 device approved by the FCC that is
allowed to receive this signal and me as a tech geek think this is a great leap in communication for hand held devices, but what scares me is this

The main functions of the current system are for video surveillance, citizen and property security, traffic surveillance/mitigation and public
wireless Internet access," Spectrum Bridge said on Thursday. "In the near future, cities will be connected through integrated wireless networking

With these advanced monitoring systems and smart sensors, city management enhances the decision-making by collecting the data and analyzing it in
real-time.
