    The “random General” is the Pentagon spokesman, silly.

    You shouldn’t rely so much on secondary sources. The Pentagon, via Gen Ryder, said that the balloon carried surveillance equipment but it was not able to collect intel from the US.

    My guess is that it was no longer under Chinese control, and so the sensors were inoperable.
