Is that headline supposed to intentionally sound like the setup to a sci-fi horror movie?

It really sounds ominous if, like me, you've never heard about "Amazon's Spheres". Brings to mind stories of alien objects appearing at several key locations on Earth, surrounded by the military and scientists, when suddenly they show signs of activity.

I hadn't heard about them, and it read like a sci-fi thought experiment describing the kind of mega-corporate excess that might come along in the future.

I guess that future is now.
