5G boxes will be on "every street" meaning that real-time triangulation of devices and thus citzens will have exact precision. Whoever wins the race to 5G will be the one who writes the protocol and thus it will be tailored for their backdoors in the code. The US wants their backdoors in the code, not China's.

FYI, even according to the protocol it is back doored. Search for lawful intercept.

  It's a front door, not a back door. Lawful intercept of telephone calls has been a stated requirement for every previous generation of cellular technology going back many years. This was never a secret.

    It's still a back door. It's just a legally required one.

Only in countries like the US that need millimetre wave for 5G

> Whoever wins the race to 5G will be the one who writes the protocol A common standard is already decided, the race is just to deployment. Does the US manufacture any 5G network equipment anyway? I thought it was all Ericsson, Nokia and Huawei

  Not sure, but what about Cisco?

  The US is completely out from network air interface competition. It's only Ericsson, Nokia and Huawei and ZTE. Qualcomm and others manufacture components.
