American opposition to 5G technology has been ongoing for years due to various significant safety risks associated with the controversial technology. Last month, AT&T and Verizon had agreed to delay additional deployment until January 5 due to warnings about aviation safety risks (see 1, 2). Airlines, the Federal Aviation Association (FAA), and transportation secretary, Pete Buttigieg asked for more time but the telecoms rejected their request. They have agreed to “alter” their plans for 6 months though.
