Sounds amazing. Imagine small, inexpensive, reliable Neutrino detectors. No more bad signals on your cell phone. Reduced latency between long distance communication. No cables needed.

Forget the consumer tech, high resolution neutrino astronomy would be dope.

Not that I expect anything like that in our lifetimes.

Sure you’d get cheap detectors but then you’d be dealing with a flood of artificial neutrinos that blinds our ability to do good research on it.
