China’s inescapable surveillance network is coming to America
China’s evolving high-tech policing system, as revealed by a cybersecurity expert, creates “holistic profiles” by fusing data from various sources like facial recognition at ski resorts and train seat assignments to track individuals. This sophisticated surveillance machine, demonstrated by an unsecured police web dashboard, compiles extensive personal details, including travel patterns and social connections, into a comprehensive and predictive social control network. The system disproportionately focuses on foreign nationals, particularly from “Five Eyes” countries, marking them for real-time tracking and preemptive action, posing an existential threat to independent journalism by eliminating the possibility of under-the-radar investigations.
