The History of Cellular Network Security Doesn’t Bode Well for 5G
There’s been quite a bit of media hype about the improvements 5G is set to supposedly bring to users, many of which are no more than telecom talking points. One aspect of the conversation that’s especially important to get right is whether or not 5G will bring much-needed security fixes to cell networks. Unfortunately, we will still need to be concerned about these issues—and more—in 5G.
Opinion:
There is no secuirty in any telecommunications equipment. The NSA will insist that all encryption algorithms will have to be decipherable.
Don't stop where the ink does.
This is why I have no problem with Huawei gathering data. The NSA is already gathering it and I'm much more likely to transit the US than China. Also, the US has a recent record of intervening in politics of other countries.
