Elon Musk dismisses theory that birds are spy drones: ‘Completely false’

You may be aware of the conspiracy theory revolving around the birds, with claims that they are not real, but spy drones deployed by the government. According to this bizarre theory, birds have been secretly converted into surveillance devices, leading to their alleged extinction in the 20th century. Many such movements have been launched on social media in support of this theory. However, it seems that Twitter owner Elon Musk has a different perspective on the matter. Refuting such false theories about the birds being government spy drones, the billionaire called the claims “completely false”. Musk shared a picture on the microblogging site on Friday with a message saying the birds are “harmless” while dismissing conspiracy theories as false.
