The "need" for 5G was so the govt-backdoored telecom companies can put wireless transmitters in every single neighborhood, to achieve more granular control in mass surveillance for profit and for targeted harassment. The FCC-sponsored transmitters are interacting with every "smart" device they can reach and reporting everything back to HQ. They're probably busy brute-forcing everyone's wifi passwords while they're at it, because why wouldn't they? But maybe that's just crazy. Maybe in reality they're just the good guys who care about streamlining our movie watching experiences.
