  1. Post-Balloongate Bad Idea #14:

    Get a bunch of party balloons and attach a cheap ESP32 board with wifi marauder firmware installed and have it running a Rickroll attack that broadcasts multiple SSIDs named for the lyrics of "Never Gonna Give You Up".

    War-float that thing across the city.

  3. #Biden just gave the go ahead to shoot this damn thing down. Something he should have done as soon as it violated our airspace.

  4. Looks like they might try to shoot it down over the Atlantic. #ChinaBalloon

    Looks like they've been busy watching it this morning:

  6. 'We know that it's a surveillance balloon': Pentagon dismisses China's explanation #China #ChinaBalloon #Balloon

    I like the part it has "changed its course", don't look up 😜

  7. #ChinaBalloon is exactly the bit of oddball drama my Friday needed.

  8. What’s the legal situation here, can the US grab the balloon and keep it to see what it carries? Of course they would want ik back… #chinaballoon m.slashdot.org/story/410339

  9. I find myself in rare agreement with the GOP on a foreign policy issue - I think just letting the #ChinaBalloon sail on its merry way sends the wrong message.

    And it's Montana - how real of a risk would a falling balloon pose to the 3rd least densely-populated state in the country?

    EDIT - if anyone believes it is an off-course weather balloon, I have a bridge in Brooklyn you may be interested in...

  10. @ai6yr It would be quite simple to puncture the helium cells using small arms gunfire and cause the balloon to descend slowly and then be attached to a winch and cable and safely brought down to the ground. We did this with breakaway balloons in WWII. #ChinaSpyBalloon #ChinaBalloon
