Could new technique for 'curving' light be the secret to improved wireless communication?

"walls, furniture, people are obstacles, gotten around by curving light... THz 100X data-carrying capacity of microwaves... THz following curved trajectory around obstacle, instead of being blocked by it... self-accelerating beams naturally curve to one side as they move through space... transmitter manipulates em wave strength, intensity, timing... shuffles data along patterns engineered into transmitter... when one pattern blocked, data transfers to next one(s)... faster, more stable.. future: how much can be curved, how far away"
