    it's not really 'development' of 5g technologies thats the issue @Bennn, more governments forcing it's rollout by selling off chunks of frequencies to corporations without considering the issues. allowing them to work within outdated guidelines and assess risk based on huge short term profit without concern for longer term health risks.

    pretty much exactly the same way all other mobile technologies have been rolled out tbh. but this one is particularly concerning because there's been less and less time between rollouts to assess the affects on health and the frequencies involved this time can potentially mess with us in ways that previous technologies couldn't.

    and yes 4g causes cancer (continued exposure or higher amplitudes = higher chance), but a lot of things cause cancer. with phones you're at risk because of the proximity of the antenna to your body, with 5g one of the concerns is that this higher frequency radiation will need to travel in focused beams between your devices/ towers etc. so it's not clear that health concerns are addressed by existing guidelines. and (as far as i understand it) a lot of damage from radio frequencies is due to 'microwaving', heating up your body there are concerns that these higher frequencies could interfere with your biology in more complex ways.

    the weather forecasting issue highlights the disregard the government sell off of these frequency bands has to proper research. in a few years weather satellites may not be able to determine between devices on the ground and the frequency emitted by water (and a bunch of other frequencies they in the atmosphere that have allowed us to enjoy increasingly accurate 5 day forecasts during our lifetimes). may not kill us all or assimilate us in to AI but it's concerning for sure...

    • Also, China (Huawei) is playing big time in the 5G game. I dont trust them, so many other people too. Except set ;-)Bennn
    • I never said I trust huawei, I just pointed out how ridiculous you were for being afraid of huawei but happy to use Google or apple or Samsung. That's funny.set
    • set, dont get angry man :) I was making fun of you. Like i've said the other day, I prefer to get spied on by an American company than a Chinese.Bennn
    • Not angry in the slightest. Pretty sure I even finished my comment suggesting that I'm laughing.set
    • Folks are so in to bashing conspiracy theories but jump on Huawei conspiracies pushed by media outlets that have been proven entirely fabricated by Bloombergkingsteven
    • I guess at least the US government are making up shit and planting it in the press to localise 5G profiteering. UK govt. is so fucked it's outsourcing to putkingsteven
    • the money in their own pockets without a care for the economy.kingsteven
    • Well said kingsteven. It will blow peoples minds one day when they realise how much of what they think is real is bullshit, and how much they think is...set
    • ...bullshit is real. The sheer level of deception, manipulation and lies is almost beyond belief. Certainly beyond belief for most.set
    • ... and before the halfwits jump in, I'm not saying I know it all. It's very evident however, that I know a lot more than a lot of people here. Sadly.set
