China - Surveillance state or way of the future? | DW Documentary

- China is building a huge digital surveillance system. The state collects massive amounts of data from willing citizens: the benefits are practical, and people who play by the rules are rewarded.
Critics call it "the most ambitious Orwellian project in human history." China's digital surveillance system involves massive amounts of data being gathered by the state. In the so-called "brain" of Shanghai, for example, authorities have an eye on everything. On huge screens, they can switch to any of the approximately one million cameras, to find out who’s falling asleep behind the wheel, or littering, or not following Coronavirus regulations. "We want people to feel good here, to feel that the city is very safe," says Sheng Dandan, who helped design the "brain." Surveys suggest that most Chinese citizens are inclined to see benefits as opposed to risks: if algorithms can identify every citizen by their face, speech and even the way they walk, those breaking the law or behaving badly will have no chance. It’s incredibly convenient: a smartphone can be used to accomplish just about any task, and playing by the rules leads to online discounts thanks to a social rating system.
That's what makes Big Data so attractive, and not just in China. But where does the required data come from? Who owns it, and who is allowed to use it? The choice facing the Western world is whether to engage with such technology at the expense of social values, or ignore it, allowing others around the world to set the rules.

The last thing I want is my phone or my refrigerator telling me an onion is going to go bad in a week.
A cabin in the woods is sounding better and better.
How would it know? It looked like he was entering info onto the front of the fridge. Jesus, what a waste of time
Man made things will fail eventually so there is a risk of the damn thing telling you all the food is bad and you're now on a diet. 😆

@@uncovidvaxxforthestrongand3582 In time. Count on it.
They watch us, but who is watching them. " government officials ". We live in a hypocrisy
But besides those anti government or regular criminals the ones that hate it the most are other lower level government officials (not involved in monitoring) who is afraid of being watched now doing naughty things (like visiting mistress/prostitution….).
Umm.. I donno, the voter base? The inspectors and D.A.'s? The court?
Grow up what did you expect, impenetrable decentralized AI surveillance from the start?
TH-cam's algorithm has noted your objection.
That's why there's a social credit system, self oppression and censorship is far more powerful than anything the government can do.
This is indeed concerning. What's even more concerning is that China is definitely not the only country that imposes this level of surveillance.
Research by Clarion Security Systems estimates that there are over 7,371,903 CCTV cameras in the UK, meaning there is 1 CCTV camera for every 11 people in the UK. You are likely to be captured on UK CCTV up to 70 times per day. Worrying as a UK citizen.
I think it's only concerning if you do something wrong. Knowing that the police are always watching actually makes you feel quite safe sometimes. Speaking as someone who has lived there.
What is concerning also is that the main stream medias don’t seems to care or worst even not beleive it exist...

US has over 600 mass shootings per year. China had 5 since 1910. US has over 1000 deaths from police guns per year. China has a little over 1. US voilent crime rate is 485x higher than China's. US homeless population has increased by at least 7% annually since 2017. China has none. I would love to live in China.

For free?
Thank you for spending the time to create and share this content/awareness
What incredible documentaries. And the best of all, free. Thanks for this quality content DW Documentary.
Free? The end goal is to bad mouth China any which way the white dudes can. White dudes are so insecure when it comes to China.
Haha, I want to die laughing, I secretly downloaded a pirated movie in Germany, the police found me immediately and fined me 1,000 euros. I said an anti-government statement on the Chinese Internet, but no police came to find me? ? ? Why? ? ? The double standards of the Western media, fooling their own people, Westerners are still in the middle of the fake news created by the media, I really laughed to death.
The start with the entire family at the dinner table distantly staring at their phones is all you need to know about how ‘good’ this way of the future is
It's increasingly common throughout the world and in China they were the earliest to adopt this pattern.
To be fair, Asian families don't typically eat at dinner table together and talk about there life, that's a western thing
@@haruyanto8085 I think you're wrong. In Asian culture, family unite is very important so it's a common thing to all of the family members sit together and eat at dinner.
Everyone is staring at their phones
@@traaotuong6107 you're right. He was wrong to generalise that all Asian cultures are the same which they most definitely are not! It is becoming increasingly common China though.
Technology isn't scary but when it falls in the wrong hands it's deadly.
Notice the light saber
True, it can be used for good but also for evil. Human history has taught of man's hunger for absolute power and control. And one thing I have noticed is that movies tend to reveal true agenda of those in power. The question is will technology be used against the human population? That is the question.
IT already is
yes, like CIA
You are on this thing called TH-cam which places Ads based on Everywhere you browsed on the interwebs, and your phone knows everyone you know, listens to everything you say, keeps track of everywhere you've been, and counting on every buck in your bank account...
thanks Dw for broadcasting these type of documentaries that too free.i have watched couple of other documentaries also by DW and I must say..it's awesome.
Tremendous, informative and an extraordinary documentary👍.
Thank you DW team.

This is pure orwellian horror..

It only gets worse.
People are behaving properly when times are good but authorianism will arise as world reaches state of decline.

@@popsicleice8782 the fact u think he’s in mainland China is funny
When a system is in place which has ultimate authority and knowledge of everyone's life it creates a position of power which can be abused to an even higher degree than previously available. Over-reliance of systems, governments, or certain people just gives them more power and opportunity to abuse.

There is NOTHING good about this. Orwell told us exactly how this ends.

Find it in the same web.

@Iron Kanabo Like all things in life you must strike a balance. Too much freedom we have anarchy. Too little we have the tragedy of the Soviet Union or North Korea.
Orwell was showing a world in which the balance scale has tipped too far in a direction. Those things you said are just straw manning the points. I believe there are some who genuinely believe like you said, however the significant sum doesn’t.

Great work as always, though feel like we need an update of this documentary!
A real dystopia.
I’d rather have troubled freedom over peaceful slavery.
Your living under slavery right now, the only time you experienced freedom is when you weren’t born
With freedom comes death, crime and rape. Would you want a safe society with law and order, or a dangerous society without law and order. Freedom gave birth to slavery, the action to do everything can birth the action to not do everything, but the action to not do everything can’t birth the action to do everything
its never a black and white answer, theres no absolute freedom or absolute lack of it. its all degrees in between.
@@hughmungus2760 That's true, and for some people the current human scale of freedom can be quite narrow. For instance, if the ideal freedom is 100, one person may say the U.S. is a 70 and China a 30. Another person may say that the U.S. is a 30 and China a 15. In the latter case both the American and Chinese systems for freedom are kind of bad, and the person feels much less strongly about their comparison.
DW's social score took a serious hit just to present us with this fantastic documentary! Thank you!
...the video did mentioned about being censured by a social network by having partiucular things not being shown to people.. I feel there's some irony somewhere ahahahah lmao
I'm sure China approved of the video. This has been going on for a while now and there's a journalist who is banned from travel and other consequences for true journalism. This is a soft core version of what's going on, and they've had the score system before the pandemic.
It's interesting that DW allows to show it intacted 😅, whilst CIA hunting down Snowden to present the worst spying business & gigentic surveillance program by NSA that affect whole world... Very interesting. Lastly free Assange 💪💪💪
@@chenren6977 Greetings my wu mao friend. Just wanted to inform you that attempt to change the subject wasn't very affective. I hope Winnie still shares part of his honey with you tho
@@RDLFsama no greeting appreciated & surely not your friend... Lots of honey, hope your dad give you some wherever u r. Can't you read, not changing subject, that's a ugly subject you don't like to hear: China is doing the same just domestically than that your CIA daddy did Lol 😂
I feel like it kinda will in someone in different states and great video DW Documentary :]
🎀There are so many countries here in Europe following the Chinese model. Having a ,”green tax” and hiring out free bikes for people to be fit, cameras everywhere. It’s quiet sad that it has got to this state. This is the community we are leaving for our children and future generations to live in.🎀
I can see a future where going off grid will be a luxury. People will be so desperate to reconquer their privacy that travelling or migrating to desert places will be a thing. We seriously underestimate what we're getting into.
21:42
Today it is "The better you score..."
Tomorrow it will be "The more you are obedient, the less likely you are to die".
CERTEZA MANO !
GRACAS A DEUS ISSO E SO LA NA CHINA.....
its already like that
@@derekgold7011 I don't know what oyu are talking about having good finanical standing is completely different to social credit standing, its better in every way!
Yeah, you are not being hysterical at all.
I don't know what DW asked the Yu family to do, but his phone showed the screen for Sesame score, by Alibaba, only your activity within their apps are assigned a score for rewards, 550 sesame reward points and up.
24:23 what the docu said about how high score people can skip security is physically impossible.
In China xray machines are all placed at the entrance of the station, which means no one knows who you are, Metro cards are also not tied to your ID, any tourist can buy one and put money in it to use it.
So this documentary is being deliberately dishonest, which is a truly scary thought, considering you and many others have trust in media like DW that manipulates your views and some times outright lies.
23:16 in video duration. Is that termination or determination?
Makes you not want technology anymore.
It's pretty crazy that there's people walking around the U.S. that still have zero idea that this going on right now.
Yeah lmao. Why do we never hear about how the NSA is literally tracking our every move? The US isn't some "angel" or "good model" here. It's just as insidious, if not worse, than China.
EXACTLY! The U.S. has been doing all this for years! Just no Social Score with it!

@@mariaawarrior2643 The US is just mad because China is beating us at our own game. Not only spying, but consumerism too. 😎

We changed the concepts of society when the Internet became available to the public.
I think that the fabric is and will be updated cosistently...but to say its doomsday probably not the case...."I BELIEVE..I" that mankind will adapt and evolve to create a stronger fabric of society as we have done since the first twinkle of man...I think this is just another milestone hurtle that we will overcome and come out the other side more efficient and proficient of a society...just my opinion that all the doomsday talk is just that!
Don't worry, American companies are doing the same 👍
Devastating and horrifying.
I feel violated when something or someone is always non-stop staring/watching me.
Funny if you using smartphones right now than makes no difference from your concerns
Lol and you are using a smart phone you are using TH-cam which is even worse
God is.
The same happens when you are in a religious cult: you feel the ''all seeing Eye'' is looking you all the time...every move you make, every breath you take. Oh, Sting maybe was talking about feeling like a god in that song (I'll be watching you).
Religions and cults use the same psychological principle of ''I'm watching you'', creating paranoid schizophrenic citizens that allows and love to be mentally ''watched and ausculted'' by a Daddy from the Sky.
This new tech is pragmatically the same, but with different methodology.

It sure seems like we’re creating a future that no one would want to live in.
I want to live in that future, a future safe for my children. The more facial recognition camera's and more surveillance there are everywhere the less criminals can get away with disgusting crimes like rape, murder, kidnapping of children.
@@adamjames5077 It's all fun and games, until the tiny handful of people who have ascended to total control of society use your data evaluate whether you and your family are dissenting their rule. Even the smallest amount of disloyalty might well put a hit on you and your family in this scenario.
@@adamjames5077 what about the people running those cameras and setting those rules? Your assumption of this dystopia is that the people that control it are angels. I’d rather have the freedom to protect my own self interests. This insane idea of we can have better people protect us. There are no better people. The 300 people deciding your future and would be monitoring you aren’t good people. There’s no perfect answer but I would still like to believe democracy and the constitution stand their own. I like my freedom and all that comes with it. I pay my taxes for public schooling, no kids, because I believe a better educated society and helping families is a good thing. Maybe if we all believed in a social responsibility and the freedoms we’ve been given as opposed to this! There’s a lot to pay for freedom. A lot pay for it. Some more than others. Good luck with your V for Vendetta future. But for me, I’d rather have the freedoms I’m afforded even with the odd chance I can’t protect my own and don’t trust the judicial system after.
Have you read some of the comments?
Many people are happy to welcome their own enslavement to the state.
I've come to realise some people are like robots and love making rules and following rules. And not only that but forcing others to follow their rules.
You can never come to China，no one will object. As a Chinese, I am very happy to be born here😜
What a world to live in.
I live in china, you won’t think you lost your privacy with so many cameras, on the contrary, you feel safe,you can even went out to eat anywhere ,anytime. Because it’s controlled by the government, the information is safer to be managed by it than other companies. As for tiktok,i think many apps collect data from users,even TH-cam,for your preference
Fortunately, the Chinese government is incapable of doing any harm to its citizens... cough *great leap forward* cough *cultural revolution* cough *Tibet's invasion* cough.

The MAIN reason why the USA western media falsely accuses CHINA of mistreating Uyghur Muslims is because they want to prevent the 1.6 Billion Chinese worldwide and 2.0 Billion Muslims from working together. Both these groups have been discriminated by USA and the WEST for decades and are more likely to work together. Chinese & Muslim nations working together will lead to US losing its dominance of the world. Plus this will gain Asia, Russia, Eastern Europe and African support too including the rest of the world such as Latin America. ,

Thoroughly recommended...
As a Chinese, or more precisely as a human being, I don't want to live in an electronic prison. While egregious crimes would be greatly reduced by this e-prison, it becomes much easier for the government to commit crimes, not to mention a communist dictatorship. This is much more horrific than individual crime.

@@jordel2010 Oh, it's working wonderfully for the Chinese government. And the Chinese people love it too, there is little doubt about that.

It's already too late for the Chinese, but the rest of us can still hope that constitutional order and the rule of law will prevent the executive branch from sending us all to "re-education camps" like the CCP did to the Uighers.
I watched a documentary about the problems and benefits of to many cameras, Like in the supermarket if you buy junk food your credit rating goes down, buy healthy goes up, alcohol, cigarettes your credit rating goes down.

bruh,fake news,only dont pay for bills will decrease the social credit.
As vulnerable human beings it's no wonder people want nothing more than to have advanced security like this...but at what cost?
This system is not meant to provide security, but to ensure strict control and manipulation of the masses. There is nothing safe about it, and there are not long lasting benefits of it, other than lack of freedom on every level
Let's list the costs shall we? US has over 600 mass shootings per year, China has had 5 since 1910. US has over 1000 deaths by police guns per year. China averages over 1. US has about 380 violent crimes per 100,000. China has less than 1 per 100,000.
I'd say it's costing Americans too much.
When he says he trusts the chinese government with the data... I wonder if that's what he actually believes or if he just says that to avoid having his life destroyed...
It’s what Chinese people really believe. But people from other countries may not believe what he believes.
Well what has the Chinese ever done with his data? Did it cause the people to storm their capital buildings? Did it accelerate a virus that is still spreading within the country? Does it cause an increase in teenagers with mental health disorders?
@@julioduan7130 the Chinese government took them from being one of the poorest and underdeveloped countries in the world to the 2nd biggest economy in the world
@@haruyanto8085 I guess as long as he never says the words "tiananmen square massacre" out loud he should be fine.
Also all the stuff you said like Jan 6th and anti-vaxxers are due to older out of touch white people falling victim to con artists like Donald Trump, Fox News and far right content on Facebook... which yeah is destroying the US from the inside, but you can't really equate it with how if you say a fact or bring up something that upsets the CCP in China you're highly likely to be imprisoned and show up on TV a few month's later reading an apology letter to the Chinese people. The main issue is the combination of a surveillance state + a government that is likely to arrest you for stating facts, or wearing a shirt with Winnie-the-Pooh on it.

The bible is a good example of the wolf and sheep... Great way to bring in fascism and chinaism; considering the USA was a head of its time with credit scores, cameras in high wealth areas; china still has a long way to go.

@@user-cz5qp8yt8g Are you a member of the Chinese Communist Party? Because that is the only thing that the Western media demonizes.
You must be referring to the USA… they are heavily propagandized. They can’t even tell what’s reality and what’s fake anymore, therefore they blame everything on “fake news” lol it’s hilarious that people think Chinese people are brainwashed when I see blind ignorance everyday here in the US

The surveillance effectively reduced the crime rate drastically.

Mass surveillance already happens in the EU
the Chinese surveillance system is complex but it is childs play compared to what the boys in the NSA have cooking
It's already there, ma'am. They can see you, you can't see them. They can watch you with a satellite technology where there is not even a camera in sight. The cameras are in space. Honestly.

I live in a surveilance nightmare in brazil, neighbors gang stalk me sometimes with strangers and i hear commentary over things i am watching on tv and sometimes even phone its pretty much like there is no privacy, only thing missing is a camera pointed to my face to watch my every move, heard that there are signals that can be used to see trough walls considering that phones are always with us they could be constantly used to improve such systems if true.

It does not have to be connected to China in any way. The surveillance technology began in the West. Why would the good west be developing such technology before Russia and China?
Perfect for enforcing hundreds of new rules to ensure that no person is individual or free
True.
Don't listen to this propaganda, do your own research on it. But let's face it. People won't.
@@MrRemakes That sounds like Nazi.
@Kevin Umiten Really you need to rephrase your belief to the more tangible and truthful: I agree to fully submit and comply with all government orders regardless of how I feel about them or whether they are morally wrong because I have submitted all my freedoms and choices to a power I deem higher than myself. In reality mate the loss of your freedom is never replaced with higher security. The threat is still there, you just have less freedom and become more powerless.
It's absolute morons like you that put Hitler into power.
The idea of the individual only existed after the industrial revolution, it was created by classical liberals that were mostly bourgeois elites. All that talk of liberty you here about in the west is only for the capital-owning class, the average citizen has basically no liberties in practice.
It's much more complex than what is described in this video but data is being collected on everyone. They want to know your faith, your politics, your activism, your sexual identity, your habits, your posts, your pictures, your behavior (do you pray?). Data collection will be the way of the future.
Eventually as things progress towards the Book of Revelation things will get worse; and they'll desperately want to know if you own a Bible or go to Bible-believing churches.
As a Chinese, I would point out that such system barely makes itself noticable. You just have to live like this and you get used to it. I got ganked by the government and lost my job for revealing a case of unjustified law-enforcement. China is willing to let go all the social norms and go full throttle for the sake of development. Mao mobilizes much of its people for the sake of industrial growth. What China does is no different from the past.
I'm seeing a lot of references to Orwell here. Did you catch the next-to-last line? "In this brave new world..." Give Aldous some credit, too.

Thanks for watching and for the support! :-)
Its called propaganda....
The video has subtly biased, typical western media - demonizing China from all aspects. Advanced technology was described as creepy thing in the video.
@@karlmarx9458 You literally support a one party state L
Haha, I want to die laughing, I secretly downloaded a pirated movie in Germany, the police found me immediately and fined me 1,000 euros. I said an anti-government statement on the Chinese Internet, but no police came to find me? ? ? Why? ? ? The double standards of the Western media, fooling their own people, Westerners are still in the middle of the fake news created by the media, I really laughed to death.
I used to live in China, both online payment and surveillance cameras are very convenient, you only need to carry a mobile phone, you can do anything, buy anything, go anywhere, reduce the risk of cash and card loss, as for the camera, there may be criminals and thieves in any country, the camera can quickly find the criminal suspects, speed up the time to solve the case. And some elderly people are easy to get lost, the camera can quickly find them, even for their own home, people are also willing to install a camera, because if you work in a far place, you can see the situation at home at any time, see the family, are very convenient.
they use that system to find people who protest . nothing more . social credit score
Government got alert!
@@mayakahahe3723 Why are you afraid of the government? As long as you are not a criminal! These cameras are a form of protection for you, of course, if you are committing a crime, it will be your nightmare
The programming and algorithms are no that impossible to do nowadays. Any government can do this now. The challenge should have been whether all of these control systems are even truly beneficial let alone ethical. Technology should augment and enrich human lives and not control it.
But the problem is that software is programmed by biased people always.
Humans augment technology to control other humans.
The people who develop it and control it are psychopaths. They're not doing this to make us happier or to enrich our lives.
China's government are thinking of maximizing the productivity of its population, which translate to more power as a whole for China. They're a highly competitive society. This is achieved via a system of reward and penalty.

Freedom is critically essential for human mental health. Freedom's purpose goes very deep in our life and you can't ever take it away unless you trade it for another critical part of our life.
Freedom to walk safely without getting robbed or raped. Freedom to walk in a clean space without graffiti, without garbage. Participate in traffic without being killed by mad and/or drunk drivers.
Totally agree, freedom of not being caught speeding is very important. Lol
There're more mentally unstable ppl, sex crimes, drug addicts, and higher incarceration in the u.s. by far.
It's the Freedom that takes the credit of...
They free.. just not free to be a criminal. But most people can’t handle being a law abiding decent person so I understand why it could be a problem

Kudos to the software for accurately telling everybody apart. 👏
Imagine the situation that the people always watch their devices anytime even while eating their meal without any conversation would be normal for us.
Getting points deducted for not chewing your food well enough.
Too late. That’s how it is everywhere on Earth now, I’m afraid.
Imagine it? Go to any restaurant, any day, anywhere, and you will see it. 😎
Watching that family, all together in one room but all apart, separated by their phones, and devices was scary and very sad. This is how it goes now? I live alone so, I don't really see how things are. Even in their car, they were interacting more with the internet than between them. I bet they do it in bed together, and then go to sleep without really talking to each other. If i had a companion and kids around, you bet that i'd try to make things differently. When we go visit my parents, nobody is allowed to carry their mobile phones at the table or in the living room. There's a small basket at the entrance, we leave it there. My parents refuse to be ignored while we scroll. And i couldn't agree more with them.
family: "use their phone for 5 seconds on camera to show what they can do with their phone"
simple mind people: "Watching that family, all together in one room but all apart, separated by their phones, and devices was scary and very sad. blah blah blah"
Your are either blind or a state operative - either way your a fool
I mean... I can answer for you. Being completely alone yet online is not the same as having family and friends around and being online. I still engage in social interaction, I still play with my brother irl. Oftentimes actually the stuff I find when I'm scrolling online (like memes), I do so to show to my brother, otherwise it's not as fun or interesting (the funniest stuff are when they're shared with others). It's not like my family's "fallen apart" just because me and my brother scroll on tik tok or because my brother plays roblox and my parents talk to family friends on facebook. Like, we still all speak to each other and go on trips like this summer we went to Alton Towers (theme park in the UK)
I feel like people who act as if technology is some social ill or act as if human interaction has died because they think people somehow can't meter their own use of technology are the exact types of people who would become internet addicts or can't meter their internet use. Normal, well-adjusted people can. It's not the end of the world bud
@@laur-unstagenameactuallyca1587 exactly people act like it’s impossible to use a phone and talk to someone I swear

Eliminate crime and various illegal activities! I personally support setting up monitoring facilities in public infrastructure!
my friend worked at a pool, without the company's knowledge, he got paid directly by customers and kept them money for himself; after almost half a year he quit his job as a swimming instructor and left the pool establishment. a few people have had their subscriptions canceled as they never got them registered and this guy actually skimmed the money. NOW a few months later, a policeman called him and told him that he's been waited for at his house etc etc, in fact that policemen was a customer and he illegally accessed the government citizen database to find out about this guy, his address, etc, to extort him on the money he paid for the courses at the pool. so again what my friend did is not ok, but the pool management is the subject that is affected, the customers have to go the the pool to get their money back and the pool management must address police on my friend. in this case a policemen privately and illegally accessed the database and went privately,called stalked my friend and extort him on his money. that what citizen databases are subjected to.
This is extremely scary, and what scares me more is that my government does the same thing(U.S) despite having laws to protect privacy.
They do but more covertly. It will be brazen very soon though
Dunno, China's cross-referenced databases, facial recognition, AI, and even personality-detection algorithms, censorship and 'ratings' etc. still seem wa-ay ahead of us. And yeah, the West might be headed there (covertly or otherwise). But they've still got a long way to go, so we still have opportunities to push back and impose 'limits' (if we can just get offa our lazy azzes).
It’s literally not even covertly, it tells you in the terms of use whenever you’re downloading apps, accessing webpages and etc…
And if that wasn’t enough Edward Snowden put his ass on the line by drawing more attention to it and people still didn’t and still don’t care…lol
@@LowenKM The US is a decade ahead in mass surveillance as Snowden has revealed. US govt spying over its own people is so advanced now that the CIA can track the movement of people by using routers and wifi signals as radar, even if the devices you use don't have a GPS/location system.
It's the big reason why Snowden is still a top target for the US govt.
@@yaz2928 Hard to say how 'relevant' Snowden is anymore, considering he left the NSA in 2013, nearly 8 years ago, which is decades to AI developments and Info Tech. So if the Gubmint also has a social 'rating' system like China's, I prolly wouldn't be among his 'Followers'. ;-p
20 minutes in and the crew still hasn't managed to find someone willing to truly speak out against their government. These people are afraid.
I wouldn’t want my credit rating to take a hit either. It’s the ultimate form of coercion. You don’t even have to throw the disloyal troublemaker into the gulag - you can achieve much more effective compliance by tightening the noose more slowly and gently.
With that many cameras, what do you think.
Hahaha, afraid of what?
@@junzheyang9743 china ez sheeps
Or may be they are more satisfied with their government than their western counterparts. You people have to understand China was in abject poverty 30 years ago. From there they are now on the threshold of becoming the largest economy of the world. Why should then they be cross with their government? They are living a better life now than their predecessors.
This is absolutely one of the scariest things I've ever seen.
This is a thing that can cut both ways I think. I believe a country is ultimately about the people. So surely the overall well being of people is important. But, deploy such tech and regulations ever more widely for a number of generations and you will end up with people who can hardly function unless they are in front of a camera and being told by their phone what to do. How can that be in the interest of the people? And if it's not good for the people, then how can it be good for the country?
