Thats why I am waiting in more info to come out and not jumping on the "evil Chinese spies" band wagon. It could be "evil chinese spies," but I also know there are communities like Ham Radio that people around the world have balloons they deploy.

And yea, the DoD said it may be. But I think the DoD is still looking for WMDs in Iraq.
