Approx. 5 Million Internet Users in 3 States Now Have Access to T-Mobile 5G Home Internet Services

American opposition to 5G has been ongoing for years due to various significant risks associated with it including

Aviation safety risks (see 1, 2, 3, 4)
Cybersecurity risks (see 1, 2, 3, 4)
Environmental risks (see 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8)
Health risks (see 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7)
Privacy risks (see 1, 2, 3)
Weather forecasting satellite interference risks
Utility infrastructure interference risks

Studies have also revealed that 4G is still better, more reliable, and safer than 5G (see 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7). Nevertheless, 5G expansion continues throughout the U.S., much of it being funded by the U.S. government.

T-Mobile US expands home internet service

By Kelly Hill

T-Mobile US says that it has expanded the availability of its 5G-based home internet service across new locations totaling 62 cities and towns in Indiana, Kentucky and Ohio.

In those states, T-Mo says its T-Mobile Home Internet is now an option for nearly 5 million households — and that more than 3 million people in Indiana, Kentucky and Ohio have either no internet access or only one choice of provider.

T-Mobile US charges $50 per month, with auto-pay, for its wireless internet service. For the fourth quarter of 2021, the company reported high-speed Internet net customer additions of 224,000 in Q4 and 646,000 for the year — more than the 500,000 it had targeted. About 40% of home internet customers are new to the company, T-Mo execs have said.

CEO Mike Sievert told investors on the company’s most recent quarterly call that when it comes to high-speed internet, T-Mo is the fastest-growing broadband provider in the industry, even when taking cable competitors into account.

“T-Mobile 5G Home Internet is ready for its prime-time moment,” he said. Most of T-Mobile US’ home internet customers are coming from suburban and urban markets, according to executive remarks on the call.

In Indiana, towns with 5G coverage for home internet include Bloomington, Elkhart-Goshen, Muncie, Huntington and South Bend-Mishawaka, among others. In Ohio, T-Mobie US has expanded to Akron, Athens, Dayton-Kettering, Marietta, Wooster, Toledo, Steubenville and more. In Kentucky, coverage has expanded to Bowling Green, Owensboro, Lexington-Fayette, Mayfield, Somerset and other cities and towns.

“In Akron, families rely on home broadband now more than ever before. But throughout the pandemic, options for reliable connectivity have been lacking, and for some households, non-existent,” said Akron Mayor Dan Horrigan in a statement on the broadband expansion. “We’re excited that T-Mobile’s investment in their 5G network is paying off for our community, bringing a new option for home broadband to homes here in Akron and making broadband access for our residents more equitable.”

Opposition to 5G is worldwide and this has slowed and/or stopped deployment in some locations. Since 2017 doctors and scientists have asked for moratoriums on Earth and in space (see 1, 2) and the majority of scientists oppose deployment. Since 2018 there have been reports of people and animals experiencing symptoms and illnesses after it was activated (see 1, 2. 3, 4 ). In 2019, telecom executives testified that they had NO scientific evidence that 5G is safe.

Some researchers have suggested that deployment may be contributing to COVID-19 infections while others say it’s not. Nevertheless, there are health risks associated with 5G exposure as well as exposure to 4G and other sources of wireless Wi-Fi radiation (see 1, 2) and Electromagnetic Fields (aka “Electrosmog”). In fact, last year, a federal court ruled in favor of organizations and petitioners that sued the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) for NOT adequately protecting Americans from wireless radiation exposure (including 5G). More recently, non-profit groups have petitioned the U.S. Health and Human Services Department (HHS) and Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to declare wireless radiation an “imminent” health hazard and to start warning the public.
