Residents in a Sydney suburb have rejected small cell Huawei boxes that are part of the 5G rollout. While this type of infrastructure normally requires approval, these boxes are simply being stuck on poles around the place. Their purpose is to supplement the forthcoming 5G network which will replace the existing 3G/4G network in the future. The residents so far are limiting themselves to requesting the local council to removing the undesired boxes.
Are they just fearful Luddites or are they blocking Big Brother?

They use a Bluetooth because they don't want the Cell Phone up against their Brains. For the health, right? And, these folks, I assume, are thinking "oh, what about our Property Values?" They see the cell towers, the cell boxes going up everywhere. And they worry that the value of their Property is going to tank massively. That they won't be able to sell it to the Worry Warts. And they'll only have the smart people to sell to -- less money. Well, they're right. And, it's too bad. Because the Cell Phone is very safe for Brain. I know because I've been using it since the beginning. And before the beginning. When we didn't have Cell Phone, we had the Car Phone. You kept it in the car because it was much too big to carry around. Then DynaTAC came along, it was incredible. You could hold it in your hands. A guy like me, I could hold it in one hand. Because my hands are big. We loved DynaTAC, it was a massive chick magnet. It wasn't cheap. But it was worth every penny, it paid for itself very quickly. Because everybody I did business with was so impressed by that.
And I've kept with Cell Phone all along. As they've made them smaller and smaller. StarTAC, I love the commercial for that one. Where, guy and girl are at the beach. The guy's trying to make his move. But, the phone call comes in on his DynaTAC. As the girl gets away. And she looks back at him, she's laughing very cruelly at the guy. And then you see, oh, the call was from her. From the StarTAC she had hidden in her wherever. In her you know what. And the guy sees it too. And his mind is totally blown by that. He wanted "sex" on the beach. But he got outsmarted by this gorgeous woman. Spoiler alert, he doesn't get laid. But, it's all right. Because StarTAC is small. But, it's not that small. And frankly, it's probably bigger than what he's got.
Nokia, I had the Nokia. So easy! And so many beautiful Ring Tones. I loved the Ring Tones with that one.
The Windows Phone, I tried the Windows Phone. For like a day. I was the only person in town that had that one. And I lived in Manhattan.
Samsung, I did the Samsung. And iPhone. One for calls and one for tweeting. Because going back and forth causes many problems. But then came that incredible night with the maps. When I scored my overwhelming Electoral College landslide. By the way, I wasn't trying for Popular Vote. I could have won on Popular Vote very easily. But, those weren't the rules. And in 2020 I'm going to try for both. Very confident that I can win both ways. And put the haters and losers to shame.
So, I won. And started the hardest job of my life. And my I.T. guys said, time to put away the Samsung. Because it's from Korea, they're a foe. They're doing nuclear like you wouldn't believe. I'm working very hard on ending the Korean War. Something my predecessors, for 68 years, couldn't do. But for now I need to be careful about them. So now I'm on iPhone. I use it every day. Very happy with that one.
And, Brain. My Doctor gave me the Brain test. And I got a perfect score. 100% PERFECTO. Something not many people can do. But, I use Cell Phone every day. And I don't have a Bluetooth. It goes to show, a guy can spend a lot of time on Cell Phone. And be absolutely fine in the Brains Department. Nothing to worry about, folks!!!!
