Even before the war with COVID-19 comes to an end, the world may be fighting a new war — the 5G War. The 5G technology is set to not only bring unimaginable benefits to mankind, but also many hidden hazards to privacy. But a deeper analysis reveals that it could lead to an invasion by Chinese 5G technology. Militaries who do not have indigenous 5G capabilities for IOT platforms and who allow Chinese 5G, could then become hostage to Chinese technology, as seen during the pandemic. The good news is that India is likely to survive the onslaught of the Chinese 5G invasion if it accelerates the launch of Indian 5G.
