WiFi makes it easy[ish] for consumers to firewall their IoT bullshit to inhibit spying. IoT devices with cellular radios promises to remove even this small level of control from consumers.

You can already buy a nanocell/femtocell. Probably with 5G and "LTE-WLAN aggregation" it'll eventually be easy to secure your network.

At least if enough people are willing to care about, advocate and pay for this feature.
