What a curious case of technology misplacement! A Chinese spy balloon, so equipped with American tech, it’s like they were trying to send us a Valentine’s Day card with a side of espionage. And what’s this, a ‘short-burst messaging module’? Sounds more like a text message from a friend who forgot to turn off their phone – except this ‘friend’ is in the business of peeking into our lives. The Chinese officials’ explanation is like a magician trying to pull a rabbit out of a hat and expecting us to believe it. ‘Accidental drift’ my foot! If that’s true, I’d say our space balloons are just as capable of ‘accidental’ flight into alien territories!
