If the ping is correct then all nations might need to be a little worried about what this plane is going to be used for. On the other hand this might just be someone who wanted to steal a plane to change its transponder for another so it would appear to be a different plane when flying. So, the satellites around the world would think it is a different plane. Sort of like changing the license plates on a stolen car. So, maybe this person is like a collector of stolen expensive art and willing to pay for it.
Hopefully, whoever took the plane didn't feel he had to eliminate all witnesses, however.
