And The Guardian referred to it as a spy balloon right in this very article.

Incidentally, the Pentagon said it did not collect information over the US. Perhaps it was intended to collect information elsewhere.

Or the most logical explanation that it's a weather balloon that blew off course and that US regime has been cynically lying about.
