Ha all those chips will be sold on Aliexpress as new parts.

GOSH!
I (and my few friends from Iran) made this gadget from materials bought from Aliexpress!
The initial idea was to make a stronger PI detector.
Who could have guessed that the consequences would be so dubious!??
Don't blame me, it's the bad quality of the material from AliExpress!

Poor Connor... not privy to the details.
The whole story started a few months ago when I got a crazy idea about a 1pS pulse and imagined how such a pulse would spread across the bands.
My idea was to make a gadget with which I would listen below the noise level.
Initially, the intention was to make a device for finding water at depth.
1pS signal generator, FFT and correlation DSP... and then later in the process I discovered that with minimal modifications this principle can be
applied to PI detectors.
Of course, public trumpeting on the forums is not something advisable and smart, so I mostly kept quiet about it.
But 1pS pulse is possible only in theory, in practice it is always 20-30pS realistically to be achieved.
Using cheap low-quality components from Aliexpress will only push the criteria even worse.
However, my idea, my "visions" are not without foundation.
Something was achieved after all. Even if it is collateral.
Once upon a time, in 1999, we knocked down the "invisible" and it was immediately taken out of production.
(4 of them were shot down, but only one was recognized in public medias by the enemy).
And now it's the F35's turn...
Gosh!
And all I wanted to do was to screw our dear Paul up and make a PI detector that would knock him to the floor!
...
Damn Aliexpress!
This is a Chinese conspiracy!
I tell ya!

"Spoofing" ... hmmm ... in our programming jargon we call it "poison mode" ...
There is no code I've written so far that doesn't have a poison mode hidden in it.
Methods advance in parallel with the advancement of technology.
Advanced MCU platforms - advanced implementation of the poison mode.
For the past couple of weeks I have been incorporating poison mode into my current magnetometer project.
Because it is based on ESP32, which is a Chinese product.
And the magnetometer project is intended for a Chinese client.
Wink wink! See where this story is going?

Ok, jokes aside, time for the serious truth.
And the truth is devastating!
With this story, the naive (or not so) Colonel Connor tries to indirectly and cunningly (but not enough) in the minds of the listeners,
justify all those massive war crimes that were committed in the past few weeks.
All those unnecessary civilian casualties and destruction.
The target group is not non-Americans worldwide, on the contrary; the target group is the American voters who will soon be asked and
whose opinion will become vital to the survival of the bad regime.
The subliminal message of this colonel's performance is; "the rockets were getting the wrong coordinates" and that's why all the countless children in the schools were killed.
"It is not our fault, it was not our intention, but the evil Iranians "spoofed" our planes and thus caused these tragedies..."
In this evil age, there is no depth to be seen anywhere! No bottom! No scruples and no limits!
I suddenly lost all desire to smile.

ivconic, I never thought that you of all people would fall for this deepfake AI generated crap!!!!

Why not?
I am easy to fool too.
And I was wondering why the colonel looks younger?

But the story of "spoofing" is not unrealistic.
Currently, the greatest scientific efforts are on this topic.
How to temporarily or permanently "blind" enemy satellites.
I think the leading powers already have that technology.
But the paradox is the same as with nuclear warheads; they are not used but serve as a deterrent.
Likewise, the story about the F35 has not been completely clear for a long time.
A lot of money was spent on that project, and it showed certain flaws and was declared an undesirable purchase in expert circles.
The USA is forcibly selling that plane to its allies.
By the way... what have we learned from the wars going on? Ukraine and the Middle East, what have we learned so far?
The paradigm of warfare has changed.
Modern warfare today is conducted "asymmetrically".
Drones and AI are increasingly taking over.
Expensive and bulky military technology is slowly becoming a thing of the past.
With a drone of a few hundred euros/dollars today, you can destroy expensive military equipment that costs several tens or hundreds of millions.
By sending a few hundred to thousands of cheap drones in flocks; you overwhelm the air defense and that defense gives way.
A few percent of the drones get through and do damage.
"Trash technology" is an appropriate topic name for this story.
Aliexpress technology will win in the end.
...
My idea of a 1pS pulse is still on the table. Very current! There is no easier way to completely block even satellite communication.
The only problem is that I, as a mere mortal, do not have the budget to make such a gadget!
