Thank you sir. Them banning it is true, or fake news too?
Not exactly. Israel held a tender process to see who would build 5G in their country. Huawei won, but then the intelligence spy thing came out and America and Australia banned Huawei 5G networks as they had the potential to be used to spy on us. Israel followed suit and banned Huawei's 5G network.

They're now tendering again to get someone else to do it. It will most likely be a US firm who installs 5G in Israel.

Fear mainly. Brussels have always had strict fear-based communications power protocols. They don't allow any equipment that requires more than 6v/m. Recently they passed a policy allowing them to increase this from 6v/m to 14.5v/m to allow for 5G. Several ministers voted against this but it was still passed. The Environment Minister (one of the ministers who voted against the increase), put the project on hold citing that 5G antennas don't have radiation detection built in. So Brussels can't install 5G until they install low level radiation detectors all over Brussels. It was a bit fear-based and a bit of a move by a Minister who didn't like people not listening to him.

Brussels will still eventually go to 5G after they've installed sufficient radiation detectors.

Belgium isn't even a real country FFS.

lol. I did give 5g a quick thought the other day.

Basically I concluded with a question - wondering why we actually need it?

4G service is already extremely reliable, great coverage in most areas and also bloody quick. What purpose does anyone actually have for needing 5g?

Apart from streaming HD quality porno.
Mate 4G is shit. There’s areas within 5km of Sydney CBD that it is patchy.

I think it's a matter of perception. Some people complain that internet speeds in Australia are comparable to some third world countries (which might or might not be true - I don't actually know for sure).

But what I do know for sure is that the internet in this country (generally) is more than sufficient to do be able to do almost anything that anyone could want to do online.

I think it's generally a huge waste of money to spend billions in internet infrastructure that may have negligible benefits for the country as a whole.

It’s needed for remote workers as well. If my home internet speed matched my works my production rate would increase by about 400% I reckon

Most of the actual research I could find on it says that it does expose us to radiation, but the approximate amount of radiation you receive over a week is about the same amount you receive from eating one pickle
Ban 5G, gib me pickle naw!

Videos of 5g towers being burnt down also surfaced from China and U.K, believing to have links to Coronavirus
