One of Google's projects is a set of balloons used to cover a very large area with wi-fi capability. Their name for it: Project Loon

Coincidence, or subtle homage? (I'm betting on the former, but one never knows with the Google techs...)

"Governments have no right to question the loyalty of those who oppose
them. Adversaries remain citizens of the same state, common subjects of
the same sovereign, servants of the same law."
