    Xthings is the second laziest, most unimaginitive name for a company I have ever heard.

    Why would governments, or any other organization, want to buy an entire pole assembly? If it was just an IoT device that could easily be implemented into existing infrastructure, I’d consider it a lot more compelling. Seems like just another “Smart City” startup, selling a dystopian sales-pitch; because that seems to sell these days… :)
