Broadband over wet string
- OwenNelson 9y agoI saw this a couple of days ago and it feels a little "stating the obvious" to me. Water conducts electricity so why shouldn't a wet string? All we need now is some movie where someone flies a kite into a bunch of Ethernet cables in the rain and downloads the internet into their head - not sure what else this "discovery" is useful for, fun little experiment though.
