No.

How far do you take this? 

If my cellphone battery goes dead...do I discuss it here? After all,
it is communication.

If I object to a cell tower being installed on my front lawn, do we
discuss it here? After all, it is communication.

This isn't a bucket to discuss communications in any form. This is
about technical communications. Technical communications is a very
specific piece of the communications pie.
