5G is just the latest iteration of cell telephone technology. It will carry more data. Simple as that. Some people can not handle that. From The Beeb:
Coronavirus: 20 suspected phone mast attacks over Easter
The UK's mobile networks have reported a further 20 cases of phone masts being targeted in suspected arson attacks over the Easter weekend.
Trade group Mobile UK said it had been notified of incidents in England, Wales and Scotland.
And the "reason"
Attacks on 5G masts pre-date the coronavirus pandemic. But there are concerns a surge in the amount of vandalism has been caused by conspiracy theories, which falsely claim the deployment of 5G networks has caused or helped accelerate the spread of Covid-19.
I remember when there was a huge groundswell of ignorance over RFID tags - that took years to die down. Now we have this. For cryin' out loud people - ask a well-educated high-schooler and get the damn facts.
