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

      This is assuming one country is lagging behind their advancements. Most countries are finally catching up to our tech made in the 90s my dude.

          Sure, in terms of infrastructure. Their military is still playing catch up and Venezuela and Iran both used Chinese defense tech.

          China is good at reverse engineering - it’s what they do, but temu tech isn’t the same as the original.

        Modern version would be a silicon device not using any metal, that has a very low power mechanism (perhaps mechanical/chemical) that wakes it up much later where it then works as a bug. For example.

        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?

          Kinda, yes. Now that everyone knows how it works, and they will, because intelligence agencies share this stuff with their allies, it would become a lot harder to pull the same trick again.
