...are irrelevant. Seriously, this is an example of media creating a problem. The BBC should concentrate on critical issues of 5G, like short range and their low frequency mode not being much faster, the controversies of Chinese chips in critical infrastructure... I think there are numerous issues. Instead the BBC writes articles for stupid people that enables them to make fun of even stupider people that might just suffer from trust issues. BBC has a lot of great content, these articles don't belong to that.

over 260 incidents with rollout of 5G is hardly a non-issue. Especially for the front-line tech workers. On a side note, I would love to understand how those people get converted to those ideas. Why are people drawn to them is understandable to some level. Everyone checkout conspiracy videos and posts from time to time (by accident or sheer curiosity) but what makes people stick to those when presented with solid counter-evidence. Its like people are desperate to be part of a circle that is in on the lie. Maybe they hate the reality they live in (consciously or not ) and this is a way out - its all a lie and I am fighting that reality.

  Don't know, I think people are just extremely distrustful, which maybe would be the sane position reflecting on other policies. Just a diffuse feeling of being fooled. I think some just run with it because they have other problems with deployment of 5G. > A broadband engineer who was spat at by an enraged conspiracy theorist is now ill with suspected coronavirus There you have it, 5G is spreading corona... Wouldn't have happened without it. But it wasn't the first time this conspiracy was popularized by media and I think the tech workers get a lot of flak for other issues people have with their current leadership.
