Nothing to do with passenger phones. And honestly it's a faulty radio in the airplane. They shouldn't be disrupted by 5G towers at all... but Boeing doesn't want to pay for replacement parts and neither do the airlines. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] atrielienz@lemmy.world -1 points 2 years ago* I didn't make any claims to the effect. In fact, I wanted to make it clear that even these worries over 5G towers aren't really relevant or a reason to keep such a claim alive. There is no need to take my word for it.
