This is the best summary I could come up with:
Lindell, the My Pillow CEO who helped finance Donald Trump's baseless election protests, "demonstrated" the technology at an event he hosted in Missouri this week (see video).
Lindell said the gadget, which he calls a "WMD" for "Wireless Monitoring Device," detects nearby Wi-Fi networks and MAC addresses.
A Daily Beast article said Lindell's plan might violate Louisiana state laws on criminal trespassing and the use of unmanned aircraft to conduct surveillance.
It's not clear why a router connecting to the Internet would be evidence of election fraud, but Lindell provided that as an example multiple times.
The WMD will put that to the test by detecting and reporting in real time Wi-Fi connections in county and state election offices.
DePerno is facing criminal charges for an alleged attempt to illegally access and tamper with voting machines.
The original article contains 666 words, the summary contains 136 words. Saved 80%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
"DePerno is facing criminal charges for an alleged attempt to illegally access and tamper with voting machines."
I think you may have cut too deep here bot.
