So, the #Chinese #SpyBallon did not "collect" data, according to the Pentagon. Right, since it transmitted data back to base in real-time, it technically did not collect (as in store onboard) data. #semantic
#Chinese #SpyBalloon gathered #intelligence from #sensitive U.S.#MilitarySites, despite U.S. efforts to #block it The #intelligence #China collected was mostly from #ElectronicSignals, which can be picked up from #WeaponSystems or include #communications from base personnel. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/national-security/china-spy-balloon-collected-intelligence-us-military-bases-rcna77155 #security #MilitaryIntelligence #SpyBallon

This whole epic saga of the suspected #Chinese #SpyBallon reminded me of the popular ‘80s song by Nena! In this song, 99 red balloons released into the sky cause a major response. Here’s some of the lyrics:
“The war machine springs to life
Opens up one eager eye
Focusing it on the sky “
“Call the troops out in a hurry
This is what we've waited for
This is it boys, this is war
The President is on the line
As 99 red balloons go by”
“99 knights of the air
Ride super high-tech jet fighters
Everyone's a superhero
Everyone's a Captain Kirk
With orders to identify
To clarify and classify”
I think F-22 Raptors meet the criteria for “super high-tech jet fighters.” Here’s the video!
I do raise an eyebrow at the #SpyBallon thing. As the US themselves said a few days back, the balloon cannot gather that much intelligence anyway, and nowhere near as much as Chinese satellites could, and that's why they initially decided not to shoot it down.
I'm open to be corrected on this, but a balloon seems a stupid way to gather intelligence anyway: you have absolutely no control on where it will go.
I think they're grooming us for a war with China.
Always remember Iraq's WMD...
"Ein ranghoher Vertreter des US-Verteidigungsministeriums teilte mit, der Ballon sei Teil einer ganzen Flotte, die China über fünf Kontinenten zur Spionage einsetze, auch in Europa."
Seltsam, dass man darüber hier in der Presse gar nichts hört. Wobei ich auch prinzipiell unsere eigenen Aufklärungs- und Bekämpfungsmöglichkeiten auch stark limitiert ansehe.

🤔 "Überreaktion" ?
Das wäre die persönliche Rückgabe des Ballons durch die US Army in Beijing.
