My static-filled drive past a cell tower flipped my view on 5G rumors
I was listening to a ball game on AM radio when it crackled near a new tower. That mess is just old radio waves bumping into things, nothing sinister. 5G tech works on a similar idea, just packed tighter. Folks claiming it's a secret weapon don't get how signals actually move. In my shop, I see cars with more complex electronics than this. The fear feels like when customers blame 'computer ghosts' for a loose wire. Honestly, the whole debate just misses the point of how stuff works.

Ever get that same static near power lines? You're right, it's just basic signal stuff people don't get. Your explanation really helps clear it up.

Yeah that basic signal stuff is everywhere once you tune into it.
