Fair point, in fact why should we not suspect that the "Leaked Classified Documents" contains at least some if not mostly miss-information or at least information the USG figured the Russians all ready had in hope of having a honeypot opportunity present itself?

You can be sure everything about the balloon, real or imagined, is highly classified. If you are reading anything about it, it is because an "Anonymous Source" in the Government wanted you to read a story with carefully selected bits of information designed to advance an agenda they or their Agency wanted advanced; your belief as an individual is optional, in fact a few skeptics help create a fog of confusion so they can label those who don't buy the narrative a conspiracy theorist.
My suspicion is our Intell and Counter-intell had a lot of fun feeding the Chinese balloon miss-leading data.

The name Andrew John Herrera sounds pretty non-descript in a nation of mutts.

If your buying a truck and the sale doesn't include a trip to the DMV, I don't have much sympathy for your poor choices.

Usually in rental scams, the Owner calls the Police who pull the Pontius Pilate routine when the scammed pulls out a bogus rental agreement and tells the owner to take it to court. Far easier to break into your own place while the scammers are out and have them be told to take it to court by the police.
  Stand your ground laws are only controversial when the society operates from the premise that predators have a right to prey.

Well actually,

Internet connected computers are baked into the system.

Not only HIPPA but sounds like there were some PCI, Payment card industry, compliance violations as well.

And when you have to drive over to the office to show the Receptionist how to insert a USB stick encrypted or otherwise into her computer?

That would work great until Obama went to electronic medical records; now there is no such thing as "Air-Gapped" and "Medical Records". I know that sounded snarky, but everything has advantages and disadvantages and Obama only did something that was going to happen whether he did it or someone else.

Would it be too conspiratorial to wonder if all of the Crypto-Bro "left the party" so Microsoft could enter the game? I sure their are many Government types that would love to have the people of the world using a currency with a built in audit trail and can be remotely shut off.

It's been revealed that social media companies where getting pressured to flag true statements as medical misinformation if someone thought it might cause vaccine hesitancy.

The only way you can tell for sure if a video is demonitized or not on youtube is to be the channel owner and look on the dashboard.

I watched the episode in question and that is what I personally saw and heard. Youtube considers WHO to be authoritative, when you quote CDC and it is in variance with WHO, you get a Medical Misinformation strike.

That's a disingenuous argument, Advertisers don't seem to care when their billboard ads are next to a whorehouse or a chop-shop. Some companies primary demographic is attracted to " controversial content". If Google was really smart they could they could tailor ad presention to a fine degree and use it as a value added tier of adverts.

One of their (Youtube's) gimmicks is they demonetize a video on spurious grounds, but still show ads around the video. The Content Provider appeals and prevails, but only after the video has had 80% of it's views already, do they get remonetized but don't get the revenues during the time they were erroneously demonetized. They banned Steven Crowder for "Medical Misinformation" over quoting the CDC website.
