  1. The EU will serve frequencies of the new 5G network so that travelers can use their cell phones from the air.

  2. Nice! Let’s put it on speaker mode and hold it horizontally in front of your face in a public space!

  3. Gotta love when boomers receive their WhatsApp memes with shitty auto music in an airplane now

  4. Worst advancement since the invention of the mobile phone.

    Now you’re stuck with your co-passengers life stories even in the air.

    Even I need to start using headphones in the plane.

  5. As someone who works in mobile phone company: you could use your phone on plane for years already. Do you really thing that if a mobile phone was that dangerous they would let your board a plane with it? Do you think everyone switch their phone to airplane?

    Planes are protected from such interferences for a while, morover they are Faraday cages.

  6. Don’t see the drama in this, just pack some headphones and fuck the rest. Your job calling? Put airplane mode on, don’t do work outside of work hours, if they don’t like it they can go fuck themselves. The actual problem starts if you start picking up their calls indicating that you indeed can be exploited.
