Chinese Spy Balloon Used US Internet To Communicate says Report

In early 2023, China sent a spy balloon towards America. Now an American official has revealed that China had used an American internet service provider to collect information through this balloon. Through which it transferred data related to navigation and location.

According to NDTV report, through this connection, American intelligence agencies were successful in tracking the location of the balloon and gathering important information. However, the identity of the Internet service provider is not mentioned here. But the report said that when the balloon was passing over America, it was able to establish communication with Beijing.

Officials said the network connection was not used to send intelligence data back to China. But the balloon stored all the important information inside itself, so that it could be opened and viewed later. America had captured this balloon and deactivated it in February. And analyzed the information stored in it. At the same time, FBI and National Intelligence Office refused to make any comment in this regard. CNN also tried to get a response from the Chinese Embassy in Washington.

At the same time, China continues to insist that the balloon that came from its side was a weather balloon, which was flown to collect weather information, but it had lost its way. But earlier in a report given by CNN, it was said that US Intelligence has discovered that the balloon was part of the surveillance program of the Chinese military.
