What do Africa and Russia have in common?
The phrase: “And then it got worse.”
Russia is doing absolutely great - but not if you follow western for-profit propaganda outlets. Find some real information outlets that actually does journalism and seek a close approximation to the ‘Truth’ - try it…
I came into this article skeptical about the software origins of the surveillance apparatus. After all, every American Flock camera probably has “made in China” stamped on its plastic somewhere.
But the article points to a study that has an answer: it’s probably Huawei’s solution, which is end-to-end and optionally GDPR-compliant. But one very short rabbit hole later (Huawei):
Nowhere to hide: Building safe cities with technology enablers and AI
It goes on to positively reference the state surveillance apparatuses in Person of Interest and Mission Impossible, and praise the power of distilling data with AI. It is dysyopian beyond belief.
The same study mentions other companies are also jockeying for the contracts, with South Korea being the second most successful (it secured contracts in 5 of the 11 countries with China-based solutions). Also mentioned are the UAE (2 countries), USA (1), and Israel (1).
Haha. Western propagandist and leaders of “surveilance-capitalism” propagandizes about “China”, you know baad baad CHINA !!!
Jebus man. Incredible that people keep regurgitating The Guardian articles or ANY western warmongering nonsense as if they were somehow ‘news’, or ‘not-propaganda’.
The West are embarrassing them-selves on ALL levels…
…oh, one more: “AI-led” ?? It’s just Capitalists doing their psychopath Capitalist thing - exploiting everytjhing and everybody. The Capitalist Ychos just have a new shiny tool to observe and control their fellow citizens - that’s all…
