lol. 90% of the world's apps would cease to work. Great idea!

This is an interesting test, yes! In time, I’m facing some difficulties because we’re at the end of the month and my connectivity is reduced; and some things seem not to be working so well...

tc netem in Linux can be useful for this sort of testing to simulate the sort of latency, packet loss and corruption that may be seen on unreliable mobile networks.

2003 Toshiba laptop with one WiFi bar, while being chased by Italian mafia? What's the point? 2 years later all phones and laptops will be 2x, I mean now macbook air has 8 cores and many phones starting to have 12 GB ram. 2-3 years later it will move down to 'everyone', just like the $300 phone no...
