Chinese company with CCP's Military and Intelligence Network Surveys the World
A Chinese company, Zhenhua Data, with links to Beijing's military and intelligence networks has been amassing a vast database of detailed personal information on prominent and influential figures, including British Prime Minister Boris Johnson, members of the royal family, Australian Prime Minister Morrison and Indian Prime Minister Naomohan Modi, military officers, celebrities, entrepreneurs, journalists, accountants, academics, scientists, as well as criminals and politically sensitive people.
The database of 2.4 million people has been leaked from the Shenzhen-based company is believed to be used by China's intelligence service, the Ministry of State Security. Of the 250,000 records recovered, there are 52,000 on Americans, 35,000 Australians, 10,000 Indian, 9,700 British, 5,000 Canadians, 2,100 Indonesians, 1,400 Malaysia and 138 from Papua New Guinea.
While much of the information has been "scraped" from open-source material, some profiles have information which appears to have been sourced from confidential bank records, job applications and psychological profiles. The company is believed to have sourced some of its information from the so-called "dark web".
One intelligence analyst said the database goes much further that of "Cambridge Analytica”, suggesting a complex global operation using artificial intelligence to trawl publicly available data to create intricate profiles of individuals and organisations, potentially probing for compromise opportunities.
The database was leaked to a US academic based in Vietnam, Professor Chris Balding, who until 2018 had worked at the elite Peking University before leaving China citing fears for his physical safety.
"China is absolutely building out a massive surveillance state both domestically and internationally.” “I think it speaks to the broader threat of what China is doing and how they are surveilling, monitoring and seeking to influence… not just their own citizens, but citizens around the world." Professor Balding told the Australian Broadcasting Corporation.

Covid-19: China pushes for QR Code based global travel system
In the G20 summit, Xi Jinping pushed QR codes which could be used to recognize “health certificates based on nucleic acid test result.
Human Rights advocates want that the codes could be used for “broader political monitoring and exclusion”. And the codes are based on a combination of big data and information submitted by the users themselves.
Chinese QR codes was developed by financial technology giant Ant Financial, and is available through its main app Alipay, but also on WeChat, which belongs to Alipay’s competitor Tencent.

British Minister Resigned Over Affair Scandal; Surveillance Camera Comes from Chinese enterprises monitoring Xinjiang
British Secretary of Health Matt Hancock, who was married, was revealed to have kissed a colleague, who was also married, in his office. Matt has resigned on 26 June, 2021.
What alarmed the British government the most is the leakage of the surveillance camera footage of Matt's office.
According to the media, the camera was menufactured by the Chinese company Hikvision, which provides CCP with equipment to monitor Xinjiang. The company has been blacklisted by the United States for violating human rights in Uyghur.
Although British security officers claimed that there was a low chance that the incident involved countries that are hostile to the UK, British politicians called on the government to pay attention to China-made monitoring devices.
British Labour Party member Conor McGinn indicated that "the problem is not just about the scandal of Matt Hancock being exposed, but the security crisis within the British government“.
McGinn demanded the goverment to respond to how "a private company that has a connection with China can reach the depth of Whitehall”.

Using black sites to detain people #CCP doesn't like but has no actual official reason to press charges is common in #China, but Wu's testimony is the only one known about black sites beyond #Chinese border. CCP is increasingly abusing its international clout to oppress dissidents. Wonder if there's any such jail got any under your nose?

"She saw another prisoner, a Uyghur woman, while waiting to use the bathroom once, she said. A second time, she heard a Uyghur woman shouting in Chinese, “I don’t want to go back to China, I want to go back to Turkey.” Wu identified the women as Uyghurs based on what she said was their distinctive appearance and accent."

#TikTok Browser Can Track Users’ Keystrokes, According to New Research
// The web browser used within the TikTok app can track every keystroke made by its users, according to new research that is surfacing as the Chinese-owned video app grapples with U.S. lawmakers’ concerns over its data practices.
The research from Felix Krause, a privacy researcher and former Google engineer, did not show how TikTok used the capability, which is embedded within the in-app browser that pops up when someone clicks an outside link. But Mr. Krause said the development was concerning because it showed TikTok had built in functionality to track users’ online habits if it chose to do so.
Collecting information on what people type on their phones while visiting outside websites, which can reveal credit card numbers and passwords, is often a feature of malware and other hacking tools. While major technology companies might use such trackers as they test new software, it is not common for them to release a major commercial app with the feature, whether or not it is enabled, researchers said. //

Surveillance for All: China Pushes for Permanent Health Code by 2025
Although the #WHO had clearly stated that there had been a drastic 90% decrease in COVID deaths across the world, China had not embraced this optimistic view. Instead, it has declared a goal of making the Health QR Code mandatory for everyone in the country by 2025, enforcing a long-term, real-time surveillance for its citizens.
On Nov 9, The National Health Commission of China announced on its website that by 2025, every Chinese citizen will have a dynamically-managed electronic health file and a fully-functional electronic health code. The announcement is jointly published by the National Health Commission, State Administration of State Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and National Bureau of Disease Control and Prevention.
According to the announcement, the health code systems currently in use are run by each province separately, and the systems from different provinces do not generally recognize each other's codes. In response, the central government aims to create a basic, inter-connected surveillance platform by 2025, in which each resident will have a dynamically-managed electronic health file and a fully-functional electronic health code.
With such a system in place, the Chinese government will be able to leverage big data to trace the so-called "high-risk individuals", establishing a long-term, real-time surveillance and control of the Chinese populace.
