Hong Kong Demonstrators, which are concerned about face recognition technology, are other ways to specify individuals.
On August 11, a man wearing a black T -shirt wearing a yellow helmet under a shopping mall and a restaurant neon light in Causeway Bay (Causeway Bay) and a restaurant pressed his knees against one demo participant.rice field.The demonstration man was holding his body on the police, putting his 頰 on the ground, and asking for compassion as his blood spreads under his face.
"I broke to the front teeth. I'm sorry."
Helmets and black clothes are standard uniforms for democratic people who are protesting in Hong Kong.However, the Hong Kong police said at a press conference held on the 12th that the man who supported the police in the arrest of the demonstration on the 11th was one of the masked investigators.This was the first time that Hong Kong authorities have publicly acknowledged the use of masked investigators.Hong Kong's Secretary of Hong Kong said that the operation was to aim for a "nuclear extreme demonstration activist".
Since protesting in June began in June after the controversial "Escape Crime Ordinance" amendment, participants in the demonstration constantly hide their faces and blindfold and destroy surveillance cameras.I used to contact each other using an encrypted app.However, protest activities have expanded to a larger resistance movement, police have expanded their tactics, and nearly 750 people are arrested, the demonstrators are not trying to identify their identity.Or, who can trust who can trust, they are gradually becoming paranoid.
Hong Kong was governed by the UK for 150 years before being returned to China.When returned from the UK in 1997, the Chinese government promised that Hong Kong could maintain its own legal system for the next 50 years.It is now known as a "two -country system".However, China slowly began to settle Hong Kong's freedom (one of the most notable is that it has taken up the ability to select political leaders on their own).And this time, the revision of the "Escape Ordinance" has made the congestion of this summer.There is a fear that all of the protests on the street, the occupation of the airport, the smoke of the tear gas, and the underlying of these things will break the characteristics of Hong Kong by China adjacent to the north.
"We just want the promised ones." The demonstrator appealed to travelers who were dissatisfied with the airport on the 12th due to the occupation of the airport on the 12th.
But that also means fighting against the world's leading authority.
It is a country that mainly monitors the people using face recognition technology, and is a country that is increasingly recruiting protests in Hong Kong.Initially, China was the reaction of censoring domestic news, but since the demonstration has occurred, language has gradually become more aggressive.China described the violence of intensifying in protests on Tuesday as "a sign of a sign of terrorism."
As the number of arrests continues, there are concerns that their identity will be identified in the most obvious fears of demonstrations.To further investigate this, BUZZFEED NEWS has scrutinized hundreds of pages published by the government logistics service office, which is in charge of preparing documents by the Hong Kong government, requested information disclosure.
These records showed at least three fields that showed that the Hong Kong government had already adopted some facial recognition technology.At present, this is a border using Hong Kong ID cards, passports, which are Hong Kong residents' ID cards, and recently opened the world's longest marine bridge.
