          This is old ASF, if you don’t think we can’t detect these then 😂😂😂

            tech is tech. if it’s able to not be detected then it’s able to be not detected now.

                Who “they”? Security services are not the hive, It’s not like everyone knows everything pr never misses anything. Or do you think it’s like a game where you unlock the “passive listening device countermeasures” technology and suddenly 100% bugs across the country are found and new bugs can’t be planted?

        I feel like it is entirely plausible to miss something when scanning, I believe it is extremely plausible to miss something when scanning an entire jet aircraft, regardless of the skills of the personnel involved.

            I feel like I had to have heard of this device before, but that article was a fascinating read - thank you!

            I think people still think of China as a second tier sometimes, but from what I have seen their technology is likely at least equal to ours, and I would imagine the West and China both surpass each other in different technological categories.

              Lol China is far superior to our tech. They get to manufacture everything we design. Then get to ponder on improvements. Not to mention their “students” in all our universities.

          By “the FBI scanned”, they probably mean “We told Kash Patel that there was a six pack of Miller hidden somewhere in the plane and let him have at it.”

            Right? I was like “Faith in the FBI? Someone didn’t watch the Mens Hockey gold medal match…”
