Yeah, it's really that stupid!
Thank God Trump is Back In Office To Set Shit Right!

LONDON, May 14 (Reuters) - U.S. energy officials are reassessing the risk posed by Chinese-made devices that play a critical role in renewable energy infrastructure after unexplained communication equipment was found inside some of them, two people familiar with the matter said.
Power inverters, which are predominantly produced in China, are used throughout the world to connect solar panels and wind turbines to electricity grids. They are also found in batteries, heat pumps and electric vehicle chargers.

Not enough info. Are these just monitoring, an transmitting usage info, or are they able to receive and control device?

Yes, to both. It's been an issue for decades, and suddenly Reuters discovers the issue?
nah, these commies buried the issue for decades because the CCP told them to, but now that Trump banned them and AP from AF-1, their access is suddenly cut to secondary information, they're panicking.

Just assume anything you have with Bluetooth/Wi-Fi is connected back to the CCP. Yes, they are spying!
But when you connect to the grid, you control the ability to shut it down.
That's the real threat the CCP can control our grid.

Yes, have seen this updated. Brings to mind the exploding pagers.

True, even a simple command to overcharge a single capacitor times 1 million nationwide could disrupt huge portions of the country, could have a cascading effect.
The thing is, this is not only plausible, but designed into the system, which is why we're changing out all dock control systems, China has remote capability to take command over our docks and shipping.

   

Someone else noticed the obvious. But he goes into deeper detail.
