Yeah, I mean, there's lots of other cool things in this catalog, like... Oh, Raptor Reflector. So, this is for picking up... Audio, this is standard audio bugs, right? Like, you know, spying on what's happening in the room. What else we got? Lots of cellular-based stuff. Now, this is like 10 years old at this point, so a lot of this stuff is well-known. Really tiny implants.
So this is like probably a VGA cable here, or like an older monitor, which made more sense back in 2008. really tiny implant into that cable, tapped to one of the color signals, and it would allow somebody to kind of energize it with like a radio pointed at it, more or less, and then receive the signal bouncing back with the video signal encoded in the bounce.

So then you'd be able to see what's on their screen.

I don't know. I haven't studied those well enough. But, I mean, there's a lot of amateurs that just do that. Like, they'll just set up a balloon. It's kind of like the ham radio space kind of in a way where they're just like, oh, you know, we can track it. There it goes. It goes around.

I don't know, man. That's probably outside of my skill set and awareness and research. But, I mean, it could be used, like, a balloon. I mean, I'd probably be using a drone more. Because the problem with balloons is that they're much more higher altitude, which causes problems for a lot of electronic circuitry because it gets really cold and stops functioning.

Also, you know, you've got power that you've got to deal with So the best you can get is battery. Batteries also start to fail at that level of cold, right? So you need special batteries, something to keep it warm, which means more energy. So you're getting it from solar power, probably. This is really low-power stuff, right? I don't know.

Maybe just the value of how does someone respond to putting something in their awareness? Yeah. Which is absolutely a thing, right? How does someone respond? Which, I don't know, similar to the drones that are popping up. And I'm just like, I don't know where that's coming from. Jersey had one recently. But there's lots of, like, drones in the sky.
