1) As we know, Telus has been pushing its “fiber optic cable” very aggressively, even threatening people with loss of service if they objected to having whatever it is they are installing in homes. There is confusion in the general public about fiber optic cable being installed by Telus which is the backbone of the wireless 5G grid and required to provide data to the microcells, and the fiber optic networks that the Appeal is recommending.
Telus is providing info in mailings and on their website that truly misrepresents what they are doing and the service they are providing. Their “pure fiber” is not pure fiber. The last step to and into your home is wireless. Fiber optic cable to and through the home, wired to the computer, offer many times faster service, is much harder to hack, offers greater protection for personal data, and. above, all is much, much safer because it doesn’t emit RF radiation.

“Performance, speed and flexibility. No matter what kind of business you’re in, there’s a TELUS internet plan that will give you the competitive edge you need. Power your business with TELUS PureFibre™, the #1 internet technology for speed and reliability.”
What is being recommended in the Appeal and by any experts is fiber optic cable “through and into” your home, connected via cable to the computer, with no wireless component. This last step is vital because that is what eliminates the radiation, protects privacy, and increases the speed and efficiency of the internet access.

3) 5G Summit — next installment of interviews with a wide variety of speakers.
Wow, you do not actually have a clue as to what you are talking about, much like most everyone who is against 5G mobile services.
When Telus mentions their “Pure Fiber” plans and the pages YOU linked to they are actually talking about an actual fiber optic cable running into your home or business, it has NOTHING to do with 5G mobile services.
Are you kidding? Without fiber optic cable the 5G network would not be possible. Do some more reading and learn about this before making unfounded statements.
Of course 5G would not be possible without fiber optic cable, this could be said about most of the internet, also 4G LTE and ALL cellular / mobile services use fiber optic cable in their backbone. Saying that Telus is only using fiber optic cable for 5G is just insane. When Telus advertises Telus Pure Fiber they are actually talking about FTTH which is Fiber To The Home where an actual fiber optic cable terminates inside your house to a modem / router, At no time does this ever have anything to do with 5G wireless services.
