oh great, even more ways for the cia to hide their cancer guns

Edit: Apparently that wasn't obvious enough. This is really cool.
- Tin foil on your balls or labia will stop 5G from entering your brain. If all else fails, try rectal carrots. They have cyanidin 3-ferulylxyloglucosyl galactoside which block receptors in the soul from receiving 410 MHz to 7125 MHz frequencies.
  
  recital carrots
  
  And I suddenly really want to play piano
  
  Rectal carrots are great even without the privacy benefits
  
  recital carrots
  
  I don’t know why, but I read this as “rectal carrots”. Like some sort of a carrot suppository.
  
  Brb, I’m gonna try something…
- You clearly don't do conspiracy well, do you?
  
  It's common knowledge that 5G is not for cancer. It's for the mind controlling chips we all got installed with our COVID shot! Duh!!
  
  /s (just in case)
  
  it can be both; the microchips are from private interests, the cancer is from the state.
  
  Yeah it was 3G that gave brain cancer.
Useless, we all got the embedded 5g base station with the vaccine

Works great, i always have 5 bars
- I think mine interacts with the microplastics in my balls, cell reception is always better when I get morning wood.
Believe or not, still won't be getting the mythical 1gbps

What is the actual benefit of 5g besides draining phone battery faster than LTE?
- 5G has some security improvements, making it harder to track and spoof people's phones. It also supposedly offers lower latencies.
  
  Well, actually, 5G was weakened so they could still spy.
  
  Is this improvement enough to justify massive expense taxpayers incurred to fund telcos CapEx?
- What is the actual benefit of 5g besides draining phone battery faster than LTE?
  
  Midband 5G seriously outperforms LTE in my experience. And as radios have matured battery drain has gotten significantly better (which is exactly what happened with LTE radios when we all left HSPA+ behind).
  
  When I had an older 5G phone without midband signal and an early radio, I just left the 5G off. But now I get annoyed if I only have LTE.
- I get ~800Mbps download speed on 5g at home. Maybe your area just didn't invest in 5g all that much?
