Chinese tracker hidden in sealed part in UK Government car
<< < (4/8) > >>
Bicurico:
You can buy cheap GPS trackers on AliExpress. They are all manufactured in China. That does not mean it was a Chinese spy applying it to that car.
It could be anyone, for example the minister's wife who was wondering if her husband was really working late or visiting some sex club.

Again, this is fake news at its best. Technically written to impress the ignorant and total lack of real facts.

Any mobile phone can act as a tracking device which is why Huwaei is no longer allowed to sell them in the USA.

Why would the Chinese bother with GPS tracking devices, if they could implement the same on some chips they provide to third party manufacturers.

Joke: So their attempt of at getting more credibility is to accuse and blame China the Chinese government when they find something that is pretty much everywhere.

I just checked the BBC news site and no I don't see any article about it.

I see "They told i" this and that.
Or maybe I am misunderstanding what is being said.

 I see it was also published in the DailyWail too:

My bad. Not the BBC. I hope the BBC verify this report through their Disinformation Unit before reporting the technical facts.
SL4P:
If Inwas trying to,do this, it’s be a sealed fan unit, or overhead cabin light with a supply - in a low shielded part of the body.
unless you’re sweeping for bugs when the unit is active - it’s a fan or light fitting.
