Everything about the 5G network

 5G network is the fifth generation of the broadband   network connection which is a step ahead of the 4G mobile broadband network and launched in 2019 following the need for higher internet speed. This would result in low load time and latency - the time lap between when information is sent and received.

The high speed of the 5G network which comes from its high frequency radio waves and a combination of low and medium band frequencies used in the 4G networking spiralling up to an estimated 10GB/s download speed caused so much controversial uprisings to try and slow the implementation of the network.
Even if it was a world fight, most of the misinformation was directed at China vendors who were at the top of the 5G network implementation. When the COVID-19 struck the world, everyone blamed it on the 5G network-assumed destructive radiation, but science, being one of the top world influencial endeavors, did all the cleaning and soon everyone left 5G to proceed with its anticipated dominion.
As 5G continues to drastically munch the world having already shot into more than 60 countries it's advance into poor countries cannot be a zap in any way and if it does, the only beneficiaries will be the city dwellers. This comes because of the architecture needed for 5G to run at its experimental expectations including a reduced cell size compared to the 4G which means that more antenna network boosters being damped all around, an impossibility in financially down warped countries.

When you consider the fact that the 4G network didn't reach its full potential around the world, you can't expect 5G to rub that past experience even with the projection that it'll span around 1.7 billion users by 2025 in opposition to the rising world population which might shoot up to about 9 or 10billion people by then.
The high frequency radio waves used are weaker and will bring more boosters as I said earlier, but the down side of that is more power consumption and from the slow transition of most of the world's population into renewable sources, more pollution and possibly more  global warming threats.

The 5G network's expected rise in speed of up to 20GB/s, based on IMT-2020 requirements, will nearly phase out cable internet though not in financially unstable arenas. The transition means an all-way changer with those who want to use 5G buying new phones that support it. This will mean a fall in price of 4G phones and an additional rise in the number of technologically aware humans on the planet - a great thumbs up for the 5G.

The map below shows the distribution of the 5G network.
An organization called 3GPP( 3rd Generation Partnership Project) sets standards for the 5G network so any speculation against efficacy of the 5G network won't gain any massive following ever again. 
This is also backed by the 5mm distance regulations for protecting phone users from extreme radiation which changes with conditions like ambient temperature, and the say against using laptops on your laps. 
These all give a view of which disadvantages technological advancement will bring. The advantages of the advance, regardless, leave us with no option but to curve out a way to live alongside that technology's down sides.

5G, with all its momentum is also rivalled by the rise in satellite internet providers like the SpaceX-backed Star link which is on the verge of changing what it means to have no internet boosters yet experience a high internet speed and low latency of up to 20 milliseconds.

Ofcourse I can't end this without crystalling out where all these networking came from. Networking began with 1G which brought the analog voice followed by 2G with its digital voice then 3G came with what changed us, mobile data before 4G jumped in with its mobile broadband.

Summary
Out of my elaborative approach to improving the reach of real 5G effects, I can't say no to its development. But a person's reaction is merely based on his or her beliefs, for example, a tree hugger can take far reaching moves towards influencing how people view the 5G, but those people's reaction will basically be from their own beliefs and the ease with which they can be influenced.
