China has been building what it calls "the world's biggest camera surveillance network". Across the country, 170 million CCTV cameras are already in place and an estimated 400 million new ones will be installed in the next three years.
Many of the cameras are fitted with artificial intelligence, including facial recognition technology. The BBC's John Sudworth has been given rare access to one of the new hi-tech police control rooms.
Producer: Joyce Liu. Camera: Wang Xiqing.

Very true, even in America the densification of cameras has grown significantly within the past few years. Between that; your cell phone gathering and sharing your data we might as well be living in communist China.

trust me, every government wants this, including your great britain

100% right. we’re in the era of Culturecide… the same is happening in the U.S. but, as usual, more invisibly. Culturecide is more than race and religion. It’s a deeper concept. Every inch of the U.S. is zoned and occupied – every human being stalked (from the sky), monitored, some of them attacked. Please see ‘amazon e-books’, for the document ‘Books by Vigo Bruun.’ You’re in a prison now.

@Roman 213 My comment about my girlfriend seems to have disappeared. But long story short, my girlfriend is from Gansu which borders Xinjiang and there are Muslims all over the place there. Her step-dad is a Uyghur Muslim who openly practices Islam and is not in a camp lol
They have over 23,000 mosques in Xinjiang. They are building new ones faster than demolishing old ones but Western media only shows you the demolition because they’re brainwashing you.
Everything you see in American media about China is a god damn lie, basically.
cute pink rabbit

Chinese government is evil to the people too!🙁

@chua chanh I am a Chinese, all I can see is that the surveillance only appears in public places, no camera will be installed in your home or the camera will look at your home, I do n’t know how your wrong ideas generate ?

Imagine whoever’s in charge of labeling the suspects just doesn’t like you even if you’ve done nothing illegal. You’re pretty much fucked

@Darris Hawks no, just trying to teach level ground, because I’m arguing against an idiot.

@Fat Pigeon please give me an example of where it was “considerably worse.”
I don’t think you can because you uncritically believe this lie and then call me an idiot because I don’t believe it lol
