Reminds me of the scene in The Fifth Element where Tricky is piloting a spy cockroach with a hilariously huge transmitter on it's back...

If you knew Russian you could enjoy the hysterics their propaganda were stoking in 2022-23 about alleged "combat mosquitos" the Ukrainians had developed. According to the propaganda the mosquitos were specifically able to target Russians based on DNA (interesting that according to the same propaganda Russians and Ukrainians are the same people - how poor mosquitos were supposed to distinguish between Russians and Ukrainians the propaganda didn't specify though)

Oh god, you can imagine how governments are going to look at this and freak out about espionage. Or worse, use this tech for espionage!!

I can't believe Russia even took that to the UN. Insane.

This is a studied and documented propaganda tactic: flood the information space with conflicting accounts, in order to muddy the issue.
This statement summarizes it nicely:
"The purpose of propaganda is not to make you believe something. It is to make you believe nothing.
Then you will do nothing."

It makes for a good psychologic weapon, like the exploding mice from the 2nd World War...
Except that this time you can check if it's working and optimize it better by listening to people's phones and seeing how they react.
I hope they don't start bugging our homes.
You joke, but...
