Landlines are inevitable

Graham bell invented the telephone in 1876, with the intention of transmitting voice or other sounds telegraphically. The advances in technology proceeded to predict the usage of landline phones for transmitting human creatures on to other part of the world as portrayed in the movie “Matrix”. But will the landline phones exist till the technology progresses to achieve this and yet more predictions and innovations linked to it?

The usage of landline phones has been outcome by the invention and introduction of mobile phones in the market. The technology of carrying the phone as wherever you go and using it in any part of the world has made the mobile phones to deteriorate the usage of landline phones. The number of landline users in the world is 1.5 billion which is absolutely lesser compared to the 3.7 billion users of mobile phones. Most of the landline customers are in the process of dropping the landline phones and forwarding the calls to their personal mobile phone numbers to enjoin connectivity.

White noise is a disaster recovery exercise in which the landline phones of the area of protocol are disconnected and the telephonic mode of communication is brought to a halt. The “White noise” exercise was recently experimented at London and a detailed study was made on the effect of unavailability of landlines. A communication collapse was encountered as a result of the zero access to one of the primary modes of telegraphic communication. The major effect was in the mode of internet access which was directly or indirectly connected through landlines. It finally proved that the usage of landline phones is inevitable.
