I seriously hope these chemicals underwent extensive testing and audits to ensure that there wouldn't be harmful side-effects. Casually spraying chemical coctails into the atmosphere is a good way to get everyone killed.
but seriously, I know China is trying to preen here but what I see is that the reason why everyone else can't do the same thing is that in most other countries, the other constituencies that might have an interest in how the weather is manipulated actually have some sort of say, and in the event that the weather is manipulated, someone would have some sort of responsibility for it.

I consider these features, not bugs. YMMV.
This year it failed for some reason, tho.
They also did that at MAKS this year.
