If we should be concerned about the deployment of 5G, it's due to the fact that it will render our weather satellites nearly useless. The frequency they chose for 5G just so happens to be about the same frequency as water's resonance. 5G cell towers would show up as huge points of water concentration and we have no idea how to work around this yet.

The same is reported in the journal, Nature, which requested a comment from the FCC but didn't receive a reply. The Hackaday article contains this line: "FCC Chairman Ajit Pai rejected the request, stating that there was an “absence of any technical basis for the objection.” But the Washington Post really zeroes in on the FCC, reporting unresponsiveness to the NOAA, NASA, and even the House Appropriations Committee. All they're asking for is some time to study the situation, but the FCC won't delay spectrum auctions or even concede that there could be an issue.
