Did we have as many tinfoil hats with 4G as we do with 5G?

[Deathknightish]

Sweden had its first 5G system activated yesterday, and the comment section on Facebook is filled with the stereotypical new age nonsense, 6 dimensions, tinfoil hat, protesting it because it's dangerous and causes corona!!!111

Did as much of this nonsense exist when 4G was about to be a thing? How about 3G?

[Machismo]

Anyone who knows anything at all about the RF spectrum understands that those people are gullible morons. The fear of radiation from higher frequency would mean that visible light would be far more deadly. Hell, sitting in front of the computer would be a fucking death sentence.

[Morae]

Stupidity concentrates in large groups. Facebooks, etc, are basically a very large group of people. Therefore stupidity concentrates so into incomprehensible levels.

Obviously, 5G exposes your body to increasing signal strengths. Males, especially younger males, may experience erections. This is even more likely when they are using their phone for sexting or viewing pornography.

Gotta save that one for 6G m8.

There is a serious problem with 5g as being rolled out in the UK: it is being rolled out by Huawei, a Chinese corporation.

I oppose the purchase of any technology by foreign power hostile to my country. The ability to terminate 5G communication at any moment is not something that should be given to a hostile country that likes abusing corporate power. Essentially you are giving the Chinese power to destroy UK telecommunications instantaneously: which would effectively destroy what remains of our economy.

Since this was announced, there has been a lot of talk about lurid conspiracy theories. I am not sure how much of that talk is genuine: I think people are actually concerned about a foreign power having total control over the UK's infrastructure. Certain actors capable of large scale misinformation may benefit from muddying the waters by implying any one who opposes Huawei is a conspiracy theorist.

The Swedish are not using Chinese technology so there is no reason to be concerned by that.

Pretty sure plenty of them are trolling as well.

No doubt there's plenty of trolls in the topic, but there definitely is A LOT of people being 100% batshit serious about it though.
Some people/an organisation pitched some money together to buy up adspace on the monitors in public transport where i live, to run an anti-5g campaign, with pictures of dead bees and plants plus ''5g radiation kills'' and all those mottos.

I just totaly fail to understand how anyone can corelate a virus with wavelenghts of radio signals. Viruses belong to the Biology domain, whille radio wavelenghts belong to the Physics domain, totaly absurd and non related.

When 2.5g came out everyone was happy because people could start using the internet on their mobile phones (wap), then when 3g came out absulutly no one whined about it, i actualy used that systhem as my main internet conection at home. Same with 4g, no problems at all.

When 5g comes out here (currently delayed due to the covid-19 situation) i will be upgrading my 4g conection for sure.

Coronavirus. 5 syllables. 5G. That's 5 G's. China, 5 letters....Number of main games in the MGS series? 5. Who were the baddies? The patriots, who are basically the illuminati. Number of Die Hard films? 5. The films literally have DIE in their title....and if that isn't enough, Soros. 5 letters. Gates. 5 letters.

Now I am no expert, but I think we just might have stepped through the looking glass here people.

That's what the government wants you to think. Dey have canisters with virus spreaders installed there.

Nice find! It all makes sense now.

AND they want to take our gunz so we can't defend ourselves against virus.

I like how this guy explains while poking fun at conspiracists;

[tehealadin]

Indeed. Any while we are here, has anyone actually seen the coronavirus? We are just expected to take their word for it. I've never seen it walking around. The pictures they put on the news.....CGI SHEEPUL!!! They can't show you a photo because it isn't real. It is clear now that George Soros, on behalf of the Jews, and Bill Gates, on behalf of the liberal elites, have teamed with the illuminati to control China into making 5G that causes DIE to people and are using coronavirus as a cover for it. I mean, what else could it be? Go on, I'll wait.

Really good video. I might share this on FB.

[Gaidax]

Sounds like the government agent!

There is only one hope left:

[Felya]

No, because social media wasn’t as prolific when switching.

I withdraw my praise of that video, he is clearly an agent of the jews! Sent to spread the zionist/illuminati myth of electromagnetism. Bought and paid for by Soros.

I'm so glad you didn't mention our fearless leader Trump having 5 letters because we all know that his original name was Drumpf. 6 is greater than 5 and he will save us all.

I still remember when the first cellphones were trying to become mainstream(looked like bricks with antennas) caused cancer.


It was so stupid that some companies sold the so called "health safe phones"

[Acidbaron]

Two things, 5G mostly is just a modified 4G signal and as for the "rays" it send out. Your phone sends out significantly more of that and you keep it far closer to you, maybe that's why people are getting dumber it all started with the first mobile phone!

[Coolthulhu]

My only gripe with 5G is that I don't see its usefulness. Neither do most people who live here (where 5G is already available), short of the "must have the newest smartphone model" fashion victims. FTTH is omnipresent. Wi-Fi hotspots are omnipresent. When it comes to tablets and smartphones, the difference in speed between 4/4.5 and 5G is not noticeable in pretty much every application short of speed-tests and torrenting (which is not something I can picture people doing). I'll keep my 4G devices till they die, that's for sure. I don't need 5G, and I don't see who might given the circumstances.
