The undocumented radio modules were found in the equipment. The radios themselves are the evidence.

When you find a bug in your food, you don't need additional evidence to prove that it's there.

That's evidence for yourself. You need to show it to others or have proof to make others believe your claims. Isn't that how it's supposed to work?

No. Somebody unknown claims that the radios were found in in some unnamed equipment. No photos, no names, no vendors. Do you see the difference?

This is simply a news article reporting a pattern that was found, much like other articles report scientific discoveries or wartime events. It is not a detailed record of the investigation. Do you see the difference?

No photos, no names, no vendors.

Manufacturers and vendors are named in the article.

If you want more details, I suggest you contact the people involved in the investigation and ask.

No, they are not, nor the investigators. "The two people declined to name the Chinese manufacturers of the inverters and batteries with extra communication devices, nor say how many they had found in total".

I don't need details on a non-story, thank you very much.
