5G: Service or Surveillance?
December 16, 2019
A newspaper with an interesting reputation may have revealed surveillance secrets. “5G Can Spy on You” restates assertions by a “vocal 5G critic.” DarkCyber noted these assertions, which if accurate, reveal why the technology has some professionals intrigued and possibly motivated to deploy the technology:
- 5G can listen to private conversations in homes
- The 5G devices now being deployed are “scanners”
- A single car can be subject to “target acquire” functions
- Analysis of microwaves makes it possible to digitalize a voice conversation
- A similar analysis allows an observer to see an image of a person in a home.
A single source article which references pickled vegetables with 5G technology may cause some to sniff. The question is, “Are these assertions accurate?”
