I will never support 5G or the surveillance and potential control that accompanies it. We need to avoid frequencies that have unknown effects on the body the same we're avoiding vaccines that have unknown effects on the body.
People keep concentrating on the mythical "frequencies." All those frequencies have been in use for many years for other purposes.
The real problem with 5G is that the extra bandwidth allows for the "internet of things." You will have your refrigerator reporting on your ice cream consumption to your health insurance provider. Your TV will report when you watch the wrong shows. Your toaster will report that you've eaten way too many Pop-Tarts. And on and on.
The "frequencies" have too short a range to affect much. In fact, most places don't have 5G yet, and a lot of places never will. I know I won't, because I live too far from the closest telephone pole in a rural area. They will have to put antennas and transmitters on every single telephone pole in the country just to get 5G to the houses closest to the roads.
So don't worry about the "frequencies." Worry about the horrible micro-managing surveillance that comes with 5G.
Those are plain facts.
I'm adamantly opposed to 5G - even if it's proven not to cause bodily harm - because of the surveillance, as you point out.
With implementation could that create let’s say outages while things transition over or am I looking at it wrong?
