reminds me of how i saw a thing about 5G from don lemon i think it was on facebook, and people in the comments were legit scared that it was going to be used to mind control people or spread disease

I think we will get to a stage where having a smartphone with certain technologies hard enabled will become pseudo mandatory. China is already trying to roll out a cashless currency, and I imagine in china you cant get far right now without registering with your phone to walk down the street

It was a question not a statement @Tom B

Burn the 5G towers! They are spreading the rona!

I dont think it is

Welcome, <@!585449660315992074>.

Its more focused on data collection

Ok

covid has accelerated this mentality to where its a very real possibility that track and trace with your phone could be mandatory. If you don’t want the government knowing your location and search history, then you’ll just be denied a lot of essential services

data collection is a thing anyway

But we need research about 5G if u ask me

I am very much pro 5G and everything that comes with it. In my own opinion, the pros outweigh the cons.

I'm for 5G just because I like fast internet

Lol

5G is a high frequency, low energy microwave that transmits data. It doesn’t do anything unless you up the power

anything that makes my internet faster I like

The only cons are the greater abiblity the government and internet providers have to monopolize.

I already got 300mb/s fiber at home. 4G is plenty on mobile

im surprised you dont see that as a pretty big con to 5G

anything that expands government power is *bad*

Not everything

5G is mostly just a phone company scam to try and extract more money from contracts for marketing a technology thats gonna be used like 5% of the time

In Australia they are trying to make ot mandatory to have a gps chip in your right hand.

its harmless, except to your wallet

I recently got 10 Gbit/s fiber, I praise Swisscom (Telecom company)

example please of government having more power that's a good thing?

because i think the covid 19 biz showed aptly why it's dangerous for government to have lots of power

Im talking about the 5G frequencies that are like microwaves and alot of prople are going crazy about it, dont know if thats correct, but from what I know theres no research about how it affects humans and thats correct and I think we should do research about it

Before rolling shit out

I mean obviouslt it doesnr create a virus

But it might be harmful

The police and emergency services are a great example of power that we should give the government.

thats just a standard feature of government

The thing with microwaves is that they only work because it's a closed box, the inside of it reflects the waves right back so it's concentrated and therefore heats up whatever is in there

@Tom B sure, but if you understand what 5G is in principle, you’ll know that it’s just an extremely low power microwave, so the frequency I can’t imagine would change much at all

like thats one of the few things government is supposed to do

in a microwave, power is what allows your food to cook

im talking about the government's ability to dictate how you live your life

not really frequency

@Goldman Yeah thats true but theres literally research that it harms bees and shit
