The Chinese Surveillance State (Part 1 And 2)

After listening to more specifics regarding the conditions in Western China on this two part podcast (yesterday and today), I will have a hard time ethically buying and selling Chinese surveillance and security equipment going forward, especially from companies that support this humanity crisis.  It is horrifying and has no place in the 21st century in a civilized society.  (It truly is 1984 come to life).

**** *** ****** **** *** ********:

****’** **** **** ** ******* ** mosques. ** *** ** *** ****** is **** *********, ******* ****** ****** that **** ** *** ****** ** old *******. **’* *** ***** ** Uighur *****. *** * ***** * countedmore **** *** ******* ****** *** ******, trying to capture worshippers who would come and go. And there ****’* **** *********** *******, ** ******, ******* ***’* ***** ** ** **** ** ***** ** ***** ******* *** **** ***** *****? And then that very easily can just go into a database, and then they have a data point. They know that Michael was right outside the Id Kah Mosque at this time. And then when he leaves the Id Kah Mosque, he’ll have to give his ID again. And then when he goes down to the marketplace, he has to give his ID again. And that way, you can build a comprehensive map of where you’re going. If you want to go to the bank, if you want to go to a grocery store, you have to do this. If you want to enter the old city, you have to do it. And so, it effectively just makes it impossible to do anything in this society without constantly giving up your private information to the state and to the police.

****’** ****** ***** ** ****** *** would ******** *** ********** ** ******** about *** **********. *** **** **** have ***** ** ***** ****** ****** registered ** **** ** **** ****. So *** **** ***’* **** ** track ***** ***** ******. **’* ** track ********, **** *** **** **** if ******** **** ** *** *** of ****, **** *** **** ********** about **** ** ***** ****.

** **** ** — ********** ** data, ********** ** **** ************, **, in * ***, *** ******* ***** now, *** **** **** ** ***** it ** *** *****. *** **** this ********** ** ****************, ******* **uses ********** **************** ** *********** ***** ** ************* **** *********’* ***** *** ***** **** *** ** *** ***** ******

*** **** **** * ****** ** city ** *******, ***** ** ****,you’ll *** * ********** ***** ***** *** *****. And they’ll stop people, they’ll scan their IDs, they’ll force **** ** **** * ***** *** ****** ***********, and then they’ll move on. But then 200 yards later, you run into another one, and then there’s police everywhere. And then you have ******* ******* **** ***** ******.

***** **** *** ***** *** ***** *****’* **** *** *** *** of *** *****, ******* *** **** of ** ** ********** ** ****** wire — *** **** *****secret ****** ********* ***. *** ** *** **** ** *******, **** **** **** ***** ** ***********. So, if you buy a vegetable from a vendor, they take down their information.

***, **, **********, **** ****** — well, *** ** ****** ****** **** or ***? *** **** *** ****whole ****** **** ****’* ****** **** ***** *** **** ** *** ****** ****** ****. In that context, waiting in line at a checkpoint, not knowing if an alarm is going to go off, watching a policeman kind of eyeing him not sure if he’s going to come and stop you, going ***** * ******, talking to a neighbor who could be an informant — all of these things become fraught and things that are sort of stressful.
