Neighbour wants to test my house for 4G/5G or something?

I didn't fully understand what he was trying to explain.

Am I right in thinking some people are thinking 5G is somehow linked to Coronavirus?

The answer is a no from me. If anything I want stronger phone signal at home!

But I didn't want to ask him to elaborate so if anyone knows what this could be about I'd love to be enlightened please.

Conspiracy follower. Ignore. If there's 4/5G in the street outside your house, he's got his answer.

SaddestDay · 07/08/2020 19:47

Thanks. I'm fully on board with ignoring.

But curious about why he's so concerned.

But of course can't ask him as I don't want him to think I want to hear about it. Confused

Do you have a phone mast in your living room?

SaddestDay · 07/08/2020 19:51

Haha. Why didn't I think of the mast that I installed there on my mantle piece.

He must've seen it through the window.

Why would your house be different to his house? Or the street? Does he think you’re a hotspot?

JacobReesMogadishu · 07/08/2020 19:55

Or maybe he has shit 4g coverage in his house and wonders if yours is the same? 🤷‍♀️ My coverage is shit in the living room.

Undies1990 · 07/08/2020 19:57

Maybe he's trying his luck and wants your wifi password?

SaddestDay · 07/08/2020 21:13

Thanks all.

I think it's a nutty conspiracy thing as he's asked neighbours the other side too. Nothing personal to our house.

Gave my husband and I a laugh anyway.

I live in flats, we had a neighbour who used to cut the cable from the satellite dish because it was being used to spy on us. He nearly got lynched when he did it in the middle of a big football match.

I don’t have satellite tv so was on the outside, I had a conversation with him a bout it once and he genuinely didn’t understand why I wasn’t concerned.

Some people just can’t handle the real world so have to believe in this kind of stuff.

trump gets everywhere - thanks to him daft ideas have become accepted mainstream ( I try not to use capitals for his name)

DazedWifelet · 07/08/2020 22:30

@Still1nLove 🤣🤣🤣 Brilliant!

TrainspottingWelsh · 07/08/2020 22:36

Tell him it isn't safe for him to come in, the government are watching you because you have discovered their cover up about Alien landings, and the man in the toaster will hunt him down if he thinks you've spilled the beans. And anyway the 5g covid thing is just a smokescreen to distract us from the robots.

Tell them to fuck off, make them a foil hat Smile

One up on conspiracy theorists...
They say "they never landed on the moon"
You say " ha how sweet. You believe there is really a moon?!"

Tell him you've skipped 5G and gone straight to 6G
