> What was China thinking? Of course, the balloon would be seen, and the US would respond. Was this meant to embarrass Biden or to embarrass Xi? It just does not make sense to me
[ "This story has been updated.\nA U.S. military aircraft on Saturday downed the suspected Chinese surveillance balloon that had been floating over the United States for several days, according to eyewitness video circulating on social media.\nThe balloon was brought down just off the Atlantic Coast, shortly after the Federal Aviation Administration, citing an unspecified security situation, announced ground stops for all flights in and out of Wilmington, N.C., Myrtle Beach, S.C., and Charleston, S.C.\nIn a statement, the agency said the ground stop was to “support the Department of Defense in a national security effort.”\nThe balloon was disclosed to the public on Thursday after appearing over Montana the day before, prompting a temporary stoppage of all flights out of the airport in Billings. On Friday a second Chinese spy balloon was spotted over Latin America, the Pentagon said. U.S. officials say there is likely a third such balloon conducting surveillance in another part of the world." ]

Wikipedia has been blocked in Pakistan over “sacrilegious” content on the site, according to a report from Bloomberg. The ban comes after the government ordered the site to remove offending content within 48 hours, and the country’s telecom authority “degraded” its services. It’s not currently clear what Wikipedia is being asked to remove, though Bloomberg reports that it’s still in talks with Pakistani officials.

Then it seems some key actors didn't go onboard or didn't want to sit out, like the military, so he left Brazil incase the plot got out or those who he tried to approach (like the military) decided to stop being semi-neutral and just blow the lid of the plot. Lastly it seems either key plotters got impatient, or knew they were gonna get found out anyway for the plot so they might as well try some last ditch effort before the net got tight enough to catch them anyway. The supporters seems equally fucking stupid and such, but there were literal bussloads of these idiots being shuffled into all the major pillars of society. That just doesn't happen spontaneously.

There is a current investigation on why there where so few security people there, on where each side accuses the other of omission. The government says that there are too many "Bolsonaristas" on the security forces that were lenient with the protester, and the opposition accuses the government to purposely let a small security personnel on that day to ease the invasion and pose themselves as victims.
