The “promise” of 5G is a lie.

It won’t work inside concrete and steel buildings without a repeater on every floor.

The required density of towers is more than people will tolerate.

Nobody, and I mean nobody, actually needs it. Who needs 1gbs on a phone?

5G benefits only the surveillance state.

Ain’t that the truth.

It is really going to disenfranchise rural folks. For at least 50 years or more it will not be “available” anywhere outside of larger city limits because they are NOT going to spend the money to build all those extra needed rural towers. Yet, you can bet that they will charge the same rate for those with no 5G service as they do for those who will have the signal. “one size fits all” service contracts.

“5G service not available in some regions” will be a huge huge gross understatement...

“5G benefits only the surveillance state.”

And there you have it. We need 5g to fight terrorism.

Who needs 100Mb? Who needs 10?

5G benefits only the surveillance state.

But not 4G. Or 3G. Only 5G.

Maybe folks will start connecting their computers to their phones for faster internet service....instead of the other way around.
