Key is that small cells are owned by a telecom operator, and though on or near private premises, the premise owners has no authority over what traffic they transport. Business model includes your access provider owning the wireless airtime in your home or business. No more Private Branch Exchange style deals. Instead you lease a cell or mesh of cells from the cable or phone company you select as your 5G provider.

The vendors, like PC ISVs used to, are closed and proprietary distributed app makers. The data of users is held in the enclaves and the "backends". Though W3C protocols are used, including WebRTC, the way they are used by these businesses involves harvesting data about people and their behavior, kept secret in cloud vaults to which each PWA has secure access. These vaults form a privatized economy of information used to predict and control user behavior through the PWAs that are hosted on user devices.

Is there a place we can follow the development of 5g ?
Is this what you are referring to : https://www.etsi.org/committee?id=1454 ?
In Mauritius, there are talks about deploying 5G for the whole island.
> Also note that cablecos and cellularcos are converging to this definition of 5G. Some tech is different: 802.11 is shifting to be part of cableco' offering, while short range high speed 5G NR and mmWave are the new cellular hotspots. But both are WLANs, and 802.11x is no longer peer to peer. But the overall business goals are identical. There is a competitive war.
