"Proponents Boast That 802.11bb Is 100 Times Faster Than Wi-Fi and More Secure"

The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) has added 802.11bb as a standard for light-based wireless communications. Proponents of Li-Fi say that it is 100 times faster and more secure than Wi-Fi. Fraunhofer's Dominic Schulz noted that Li-Fi improves reliability as well as reduces latency and jitter because it works in an exclusive optical spectrum. According to Schulz, there is an increase in security as a result of the prevention of wall penetration, the reduction of risks associated with jamming and eavesdropping, and more. This article continues to discuss the 802.11bb standard and improvements regarding speed, security, and privacy.
