Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt.

What infuriates me is the manufacturer preventing you from fixing your owned equipment with software lockout. HP printers, you used to not suck.

NAND flash devices in the interior of the device will likely survive. That's the program store which is important. This will be reverse assembled to investigate software attack surfaces and vulnerabilities. Broad structure will be apparent, which will tell what types of SIGINT they were trying to gather. Pieces of antennae will be obvious which will give frequencies. Reverse engineering the build of the device itself will provide intel on the level of sophistication of Chinese builds and device capabilities. The DoD/NSA doesn't need to have a running version to extract tons of useful information from this thing. Landing it in the water means that more of the microstructure(chips, pcbs, wiring, RF elements, etc) will survive intact.

I suspect terminal impact of humans vs electronics is different.

Here's the path taken by the balloon. Pick a spot.

Careful reading here is required. Not that there wasn't any but that the targets of the investigation all took the fifth or were not made available for interview. See Manafort, Paul Nowhere does the report say, "no criminal collusion was found." Only that they couldn't prove it in a criminal context.

Would you agree that the hooters and grunters like MTG fell right into a trap?

So a shootdown in Alaska? I don't see the Canadians being to keen for US fighter aircraft to drop that on Canadian soil.

One of these is a scientific theory, the other is a theological tenet. Science class is for scientific theories. Comparative religions class is for the rest.

What should have been done differently in your mind? Shooting it down over land risked debris falling on people and destroying the payload, which the DoD wants.

Look at the author for your answers.

The people who own the website.

Read the Mueller report itself. Barrs' summary is incorrect.

The buck stops at the CoC's desk. It happened on his watch.

Mueller said no such thing. Read the Mueller report.

All social media is brain poison. Twitter has gotten objectively worse since Elmo bought it.

Were there three Chinese balloon overflights during Trump's tenure? Did he do anything about any of them?

You said, "the government was breaking the law". I think it's reasonable to ask, "Which law was broken?" and "How would that be prosecuted?" Otherwise, you're just talking out your ass. You also seem to think, "they have an obligation to provide equal and consistent applications of it policies". Twitter has no obligation to do this. It's a company owned website. Private property. It would be nice.

He was commander in chief. The buck stops at his desk.

Which law was broken? Cite the statute and give a cause of action.

There's been a lot of "Buh mah free speech" screeching on here with mentions of criminal liability and first amendment ramifications. Twitter is a private company that can decide what they allow, outside of illegality, on their property. I don't currently like how they're deciding things, but that's something different. Glad to see you're not on that side of things.

Does Twitter get to make the rules about what content it hosts on its private property?

Musk has sure turned out to be a shitbag. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-64579267
