However, while it has brought together many people, it has also been exploited to use those connections against us. Never before have states had the power to mobilize and monitor individuals on such a scale, and in the digital era, China is the king of surveillance.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">While the rest of the world enjoys the relatively free and uncensored Web, China and its citizens face a different reality. Since the beginning of Maoist-era China, information has been tightly controlled to protect the government\u2019s interests and control the populace. The emergence of new technologies in the past couple of decades has only made this job easier and more efficient. Since 2000, the country\u2019s Ministry of Public Security has maintained one of the largest internet censorship systems, colloquially known as the \u201cGreat Firewall.\u201d While it was initially limited in scope, it has only become a tighter and more constraining system of control. Today, the Great Firewall not only censors foreign websites, news, and media, but also ensures that propaganda and misinformation continue to circulate China\u2019s insulated Web.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">According to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.com\/news\/magazine\/2020\/09\/01\/china-great-firewall-generation-405385\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Politico<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, this has given rise to a radically nationalist generation of youth. Older Chinese citizens, who remember the earlier unrestricted Web, are continually at odds with the government and Chinese youth. Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) used to bypass China\u2019s firewall are constantly shut down, and attempts to educate the public are often reported, shamed, and punished by young government informants. There is a sinister ingenuity to the Great Firewall; not only is it a system maintained on the Web, but one that is protected by the very citizens it hopes to dominate and control.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The threat of Chinese surveillance has taken hold in everyday life. For example, WeChat, once considered China\u2019s Facebook copycat, has entrenched itself as the de facto social media app for Chinese people around the globe for almost a decade. With over one billion users worldwide, WeChat has become a necessity for both Chinese citizens and mass government surveillance. For Chinese people, WeChat is the established app for contacting family overseas, sharing photos and memories, and making payments for everyday essentials. At the same time, the app siphons personal data from users, allowing the government to target, profit from, and manipulate people by facilitating and necessitating these services, as reported by <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2020\/09\/04\/technology\/wechat-china-united-states.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The New York Times<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.scmp.com\/economy\/china-economy\/article\/3096090\/what-chinas-social-credit-system-and-why-it-controversial\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">South China Morning Post<\/span><\/a> <span style=\"font-weight: 400\">claims that in the future, the government and local companies will develop a \u201csocial credit system,\u201d which is broadly defined as a \u201cset of databases and initiatives that monitor and assess the trustworthiness of individuals, companies and government entities.\u201d Incentives for \u201cgood\u201d social behavior include monetary rewards and exemptions while punishing \u201cbad\u201d social behavior with financial sanctions, travel restrictions, and public shaming.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This combination of unprecedented government surveillance and social engineering has given the Chinese government an unprecedented amount of control over its population. In conjunction with the government\u2019s cultural and anti-terrorism policies, China\u2019s mass surveillance programs have been especially devastating to the Uighurs, a Turkic minority in the country. For years, China has made considerable efforts to reeducate and reengineer Uighur culture, hoping to homogenize and consolidate them with the Han cultural majority. As the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.icij.org\/investigations\/china-cables\/how-china-targets-uighurs-one-by-one-for-using-a-mobile-app\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">International Consortium of Investigative Journalists<\/span><\/a> <span style=\"font-weight: 400\">reports, these efforts have only become easier thanks to government surveillance.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Uighurs are now targeted both online and in real life through user activity on the internet and facial recognition through investigative monitoring. For one, the government actively monitors religious applications, such as Zapya, a digital Quran and messaging app, mining it for personal data on Uighur users. Another surveillance tool called the Integrated Joint Operations Platform (IJOP) also analyzes this data, flagging \u201csuspicious\u201d or \u201cthreatening\u201d individuals and giving authorities cause to arrest. According to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/news\/in-china-facial-recognition-public-shaming-and-control-go-hand-in-hand\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">CNET<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, Chinese government surveillance has evolved even to the point of accurate facial recognition, specifically filtering for Uighur activity. Together, these efforts have given Chinese authorities the ability to incarcerate Uighurs on a mass scale through \u201cpredictive policing\u201d, punishing them for online activity and continuing unjust internment in infamous \u201creeducation\u201d camps.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Chinese surveillance has become a major issue not only domestically, but internationally. The <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.abc.net.au\/news\/2020-09-14\/chinese-data-leak-linked-to-military-names-australians\/12656668\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Australian Broadcasting Corporation<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> recently reported mass online data leaking by Zhenhua Data, a private company closely associated with China\u2019s government intelligence. It reportedly collected information on over 2.4 million people. Along with recent talks about TenCent and TikTok bans worldwide, China poses a legitimate threat to international privacy and security. In a reality where surveillance is weaponized against the world and its people, it is up to the international community to stand up against systems of encroachment and oppression. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>While the rest of the world enjoys the relatively free and uncensored Web, China and its citizens face a different reality.
