Surveillance cams, face scans help China make thousands vanish

When you get to the stage of surveillance that china has achieved in the last 20 years there is no place to hide unless the police or government want you to disappear.. Welcome to the new world order Chinese style..

KORLA, China — Nobody knows what happened to the Uighur student after he returned to China from Egypt and was taken away by police.

Not his village neighbors in China’s far west, who haven’t seen him in months. Not his former classmates, who fear Chinese authorities beat him to death.

OK maybe one malcontent taken out, but let us go a bit deeper shall we ?

The student’s friends think he joined the thousands — possibly tens of thousands — of people, rights groups and academics estimate, who have been spirited without trial into secretive detention camps for alleged political crimes that range from having extremist thoughts to merely traveling or studying abroad. The mass disappearances, beginning the past year, are part of a sweeping effort by Chinese authorities to use detentions and data-driven surveillance to impose a digital police state in the region of Xinjiang and over its Uighurs, a 10-million strong, Turkic-speaking Muslim minority that China says has been influenced by Islamic extremism.

China has had some problems with the Uighur radicals over the years so in typical police state procedures everyone is a suspect.

Chen and the Xinjiang regional government did not respond to repeated requests for comment. But China’s government describes its Xinjiang security policy as a “strike hard” campaign that’s necessary following a series of attacks in 2013 and 2014, including a mass knifing in a train station that killed 33. A Hotan city propaganda official, Bao Changhui, told the AP: “If we don’t do this, it will be like several years ago — hundreds will die.”

Ok they make it sound legit for national security, however the meat of the article is the technology they are deploying...

The government’s tracking efforts have extended to vehicles, genes, and even voices. In February, authorities in Xinjiang’s Bayingol prefecture, which includes Korla, required every car to install GPS trackers for real-time monitoring. And since late last year, Xinjiang authorities have required health checks to collect the population’s DNA samples. In May, a regional police official told the AP that Xinjiang had purchased $8.7 million in DNA scanners — enough to analyze several million samples a year.

In one year, Kashgar Prefecture, which has a population of 4 million, has carried out mandatory checks for practically its entire population, said Yang Yanfeng, deputy director of Kashgar’s propaganda department. She characterized the checkups as a public health success story, not a security measure.

The article is fairly long and gives instances of being tracked world wide or calling home only to find out most of your family has been arrested simply because you fled to another country... Welcome my friends to a possible technical future for all of mankind...?

So right, you are saying it like it is. China really do have this and are using it.

The control freakery will spread and in the future I expect all states will use this to varying degrees as a way to control us all in any way they want to control us according to whatever agenda.

As it stands in the West the soft option is still prevalent; MSM and the work place, also the main churches who are totally controlled and must keep to state dictated protocols.

The day will surely come when Christians shall be hunted this way. We will not stand a chance. Already we don't. My life has been hell because I will not abandon Christ. i hold onto his hems like that woman did and do not want to let go. I have been very insidiously persecuted. Christ did tell us that would happen to us if we truly follow Him. He is 101% correct.

The BitCoin phenomenon is a clear sign to me that all is lost now. That will rise as true Christianity disappears. It really is the beast's coin. Look at the greed of its beginning! I would not tell you it was if it was not.

This life is just despair to me. I like my music. I will keep making that and I will keep studying until it is time to go and I will not be sad as it will be release. I will onlyu miss my music and I have a feeling those harps and singers in Heaven would make my Gibson guitar sound like an elastic band over a shoebox.

Bring it on, 666! Let the battle commence. It is long overdue. However, know that you are the LOSER in the end. Prophets are NEVER WRONG!

A nation at the cutting edge of technology let this slip through their own grasp...

I don't think America is behind on this...

now if only EU countries would use half of that to keep an eye on all the immigrants...

Just wait for it... A few more bombs or mass slayings and TPTB will have all the good sounding excuses they need.... which might have been the plan all along....? As the saying goes, 'people who give up freedom for security will have neither'...or something like that ? In the big picture hung someplace in the puzzle palace it sure seems as though that is depicted and where many in this world will be headed... Already every email, phone call, mobile phone GPS and no telling what else are in some government's hands/computers for our protection...of course....

Facial recognition software in the Mass Survellance state will be the end of autonomy. Combined with BioMetrics, GPS, Fingerprinting and DNA, there is no more privacy.

The government’s tracking efforts have extended to vehicles, genes, and even voices.

China is a 'little ahead' of the Curve. Stay tuned, the system of the beast is going to be everywhere.

Hunting christians? That’s what you’re worried about? This story is about china tracking possible extremist muslims. So unless you are planning on hurting people, nobody is interested in you. Not that it would stop you from making any topic about you and your true version of christianity. Perhaps they should lock you up before you start hurting people.

This is how it starts, people like yourself calling to lock others up you don't agree with,which agency do you work for.. ....

It's true but is it the Machine, Samaritan or Northern lights?



Great show, btw.
