| [FOX] The American public may have hit a "watershed" moment in awareness and understanding of Chinese surveillance methods, creating the opportunity to understand some of the more surprising ways in which Beijing carries out its information-gathering operations. "What was interesting about this whole incident over the past week has been it is a wakeup call for your average American about how aggressive and extensive China's espionage activities are in this country," Matt McInnis, Senior Fellow for the Institute for the Study of War’s China program, told Fox News Digital. "There is no more aggressive espionage activity going on probably in the world than what China has been conducting in the last few decades." The Pentagon announced Thursday that the U.S. government had detected a high-altitude surveillance balloon, first spotted over Montana, where it hovered above Malmstrom Air Force Base. The U.S. uses the base to store nuclear weapons. |
