will we be subjected to continuous state surveillance. ai will experts be able to agree on technical guidelines or will this technology create deadly new or ton of this when the systems. lead. robot collapse starts aug 14th on t.w. . china has long been a survivalist types now big brother needs to be. in trials across the country cameras and spine where watching mapping your digital footprints every step you take. what you do say and even

think is being monitored and mocked against you're. the party calls it social credit personal score cards for 1400000000 citizens rewards for good behavior and punishments for bad it's all fully operational yes but this report will show you a vision of china's dystopian future of the world's 1st digital dictatorship. led.

china's cities are already flush with cameras around 200000000 of them. what's changing is they getting smarter. they are illegally crossing this road stand back are legally crossing this road stand back. china is positioning itself to lead the world in artificial intelligence. surveillance technology is a key proving ground. facial recognition body scanning and geo tracking matched with your personal data and online behavior will power the social credit system leaving no dock corner to hide in. the

world intelligence congress intended big brothers new toys are on shot. several of the exhibit is here including tech giant alabama and now working with the state to write the algorithms that will calculate your social credit school they've already got the know how and they use adata from their financial credit system alli passé manager of alli petain jing is chunk. here you don't want to might you once a person has a school all their credit behavior in life is recorded and can be valuated by that number if you are goal is to ensure that if people keep their promises they can go anywhere in the world and if they break their promises they won't be able to move in which. sounds dramatic but it's the party line. pie. programs for

a national social credit system are already on the why by 2020 the official outline boasts it will allow the trust worthy to run freely under heaven while making it hard for the discredited to take a single step. but you're growing more tonight than china can make such great achievements very quickly which i'm very proud of it. while here in chile so the development of big data and other digital technology is that it's getting more and more convenient to live in china house as i don't want one drawn from them to

a. friend dan dan is going to places very much the modern chinese woman. she's a marketing professional diligent and prosperous and sees clear skies in her digital future. too sure don't present all the government already knows a lot about our personal information. or so i think if this system can integrate take data out all the information together it will be more efficient. a model citizen dan dan will write highly on social credits and. better every action will be tracked and judged is fine by hook. or no whether or not our income although i think people in every country want a safe and stable society. if as our government says it will. cameras are installed

in every corner of public space i will feel safer in the town for them to alter the way joe klein trains and. then dance criminal academic and medical records will fade into her school as well as state security assessments . for shopping habits will be another measure of. this school could even change in real time depending on what she puts in a trolley. by a lot of alcohol suggests dependence lose a couple of points. buy a pack of nappies gain a few suggests responsibility. light on mortgage payments or your tax return lose a lot more. not that dan dan would risk that she keeps a close saw on her financial rating by remote ball payment app so this is sesame

credit so what's the score that you have to say this is so districts 173 was the maximum you can get i think is 850 got a pretty good score oh i am i think of doing while i'm not the best but yes it's our own top 703 so what kind of access or what kind of privileges does that give you this is for like for rent cards i don't have to pay the paul they say you don't have to i was and we have and this is also a hall a hotel. no deposit hall renting. china's middle class is on the rise. like jan jan they're mostly young

also effect your social credits. tendon married for love but she also chose the right husband john shouting school is likely to be even higher than her use shouting is a civil servant with the justice department a loyal car driver of the party. to tell them what they offer the we need a social credit system in china we hope we can help each other love each other and help everyone become prosperous as president she said i will be rich democratic cultural harmonious and beautiful she will see us for the only good one and go she's hoping for the country's future. and it's also the hope of the old chinese nation that she walk funny as a woman trend towards a new mission. in

command to control and i think you can see from the chinese people's mental state their eyes are blinded and their ears are blocked what are these are your only child they know little about the world and live in an illusion to hundreds even. further. i've come to chongqing city high tech metropolis in central china where the jailing river meets the yanks and i'm here to meet one of the 10000000 people who've seen the dark side of the source. the credit system investigative journalist leo who. with his street smart

hands on approach who has exposed high level corruption and solved murder cases abandoned by the police in many countries he'd be celebrated not in china when for her to fall it on the government regards me as an enemy of mine the mainstream media is like a propaganda machine for the party. on their main duty is to indoctrinate people and keep them from knowing the facts. in my view if someone wants to prevent corruption being revealed then they're corrupt too and could have potentially one. in 2015 who lost a defamation case after you cues to an official of extortion. he was made to publish an apology and pay a fine but when the court demanded an additional fee who refused then in $27.00 saying he found himself suddenly locked out of society under

a pile of social credit skein he'd been blacklisted as dishonest 2. i have friends who are lawyers and judges they told me that these so-called dishonest personnel are people in debt and i don't owe any money so i shouldn't be on the blacklist. what a point of good balance between that who maintains he and fully met the terms of use 2050 in case he believes he's blacklisting is political but he has no way of challenging it. there are a lot of people who are on the blacklist wrongly and troll with a grin i was there but they can't get off and. how many of our band. is poor social credit writing has shut down his travel options and confined him to effect of house arrest in chongqing. right now my ability to travel is limited to think how i can't book high speed trains or flights i'll show

you when we don't think we use this app to book tickets say from chongqing to be on the. $200.00 let's try to book a ticket for the next few days. to get in the car and what what does it scientology is usually it says an email to make a booking for where you can be for my access to high speed rail is legally restricted to our teens and home neutral. whose social media accounts have also been closed before his arrest he had nearly 2000000 followers it's where he published much of his journalism or had more than 10 wave or accounts now they're all gullible how to handle me this is the newest one good thing as it got blocked recently to get to hotmail or. who scrapes by writing for an online publication is it best to get

a reports around how. it's not his 1st run in with censorship in august 23rd saying he was detained without trial after exposing a senior party members links with the legal prostitution this is a ray creation based on whose accounts industry way your behavior is defamation do you admit it. if you admit guilt the leader will be happy and set you free. over the course of a year he was interrogated more than 70 times. now compare what they threaten me saying that i must cooperate and if i didn't i'd lose my job and even my wife and children you know i hand them out. who refused to confess and was eventually released now he's trapped again the 4 walls of

a cell replaced by social credits dragnets. tinchy it's been 5 years since i was released yet. 100 beyond big changes have taken place in the media industry and think higher. than 120 a lot of people have left the industry especially journalists doing investigative reports and she wanted her to think about i still love this work and i want to continue to be a journalist here. i want to keep on reporting as much as possible. and i want to have whom. i'm going to a place where the principles of social credit have been taken to brutally strains the party doesn't want the world to know about its reporting on the situation is

risky. to get there we must fly 4000 kilometers from beijing to the western edge of china. jack the nation's largest province and according to some of the world's largest open prison. in junk is the homeland of the week is turkey people obviously make fight. china's rulers have struggled to control the region and its people but 2 millennia . surveillance technology is the new weapon in their campaign. ah ah ah ah ah oh cool systems. the surveillance system is suddenly ramped up after the end of 2060. since then advanced surveillance

technology which we've never seen her experienced or heard of has started to appear . tara here is a we get filmmaker and poet from this young jang city of cash. he can talk about the situation there because he managed to escape with his family to the u.s. where they have applied for political asylum. he made the decision to flee last year. we got a phone call from the police station instructing us to come by. but we were taken to the basement. spunked of other manacles and shackles hanging in the cellars iron chairs come with tiger chairs and the criminals are strapped in mind. we went inside and there were about 20 to 30 people there but we were all we.

just want to go. to kentucky you don't get a bit of chicken and this will long but. when it was our turn they drew blood from my wife and me. next they took our voice samples. of our fingerprints were taken and pushing to start talking finish the fingerprinting they began their facial analysis i don't think you. could inject a damned thing they started recording and we look straight at the camera. but i messed up and we looked to the right on the can and back. look at our fingers and then back. come back i look down. tarja and he's wife were being scanned by facial recognition software their faces match from all angles to enhance accuracy they were even forced to produce a range of facial expression.

this controlling surveillance system was specifically targeting wiggers. but. by that reason is people like us count as one of the minorities in china along and ethnic culture is always the 1st target for political oppression. of but in georgia and channeled. inside cash it's almost impossible to report independently government officials do their best to conceal any sign of the oppression the hue describes look closer and the cracks appear the party approved vision of the city is a facade cash cows historic old town has been demolished and just one section rebuilt as a sort of we get thing park the chinese tourists. you

can buy souvenirs try the local cuisine. and even see your shop. but there's tension in the year. the locals can speak with us. armed guards in cameras keep a watchful eye and chinese flags climb the rooftops even the dime of the mosque. so it's quite difficult that the film here we've got about 6 mine is with this the whole time of it telling us what we can fill the time to sometimes they delayed now material but on top of that we've got about another 8 to 10 security guards that

further restrict our movements or i can tell you from the car though they're set up in a kind of grid like management system in every 100 meters or so you see a police station and they're aided with a normal amounts of c.c.t.v. cameras with facial recognition to really have a total control busy here. what is clearly said there is quite a brutal repressive crackdown going on here and technology is at the center of it. she take on social credit is simple and ruthless. citizens here and not given a school instead they're divided into just 3 categories trustworthy average untrustworthy. if you're han chinese you're doing trustworthy and granted freedom of movement. but if you we got your average with restrictions imposed on travel and religious practices if you're

a weak a mile who breaks those restrictions you'll marked as untrustworthy and detained in what the party calls education and training centers. talkie how much has another name for them. it was like a night of. the concentration camps are very congested and overpopulated with detainee. they have to study political propaganda 12 hours a day on. shit on cheer for much food and drinking water and living conditions are very poor like a little. many people are getting sick in the camps. when we were still living back home we started to hear that some people were even dying there. in august this year the un announced it had seen credible reports there over

a 1000000 we give a currently held without charging camps in she john purely because of their ethnicity the chinese government rejects that klein insisting it's only detains convicted terrorists tardy is personal experience tells a different story when she and john authorities discovered he had fled to america his brother and 2 brothers in law disappear and. were going to mass it's impossible to communicate with them. they're in the concentration cos. even contacting their families their wives isn't possible know. we can't tell him i'm sure we can. but if we do the police will know immediately and then the others will be taken to the camps as well as their.

back in chong ching journalist who worries for his family to blacklisting on social credit has cast a shadow on those closest to him. shots yan who. is an old journalist calling. for you it's us or them watching it's a war and nation i'm not on the black place yet if i do end up on it it seems it would be like the system of collective punishment in the feudal times where if one person breaks the law all associated people are also punished nancy i can enjoy if that happens here it's not social credit it's political extremism to someone. like talking who is risking the welfare of his friends and family to alert the world to china's experiment in high tech social engineering he says people don't fully comprehend what's to come

a digital totalitarian state where algorithms decide you will fight and nothing can be questioned and controlled whether. or not i think it's wrong that our this kind of social control goes against the tide of the world. we always say we should learn from the good aspects of western countries. but when it comes to limiting the government's power we don't learn anything was rima to contrast mother on your shoulders. as reagan was called for a border at all china has the largest population in the world where this is very different from western countries from 0. point 20 can have a happiest thing for me is to see my children live a happy and healthy life coming towards i don't my son can do what he wants to and

gets a good education and lives a harmonious life. to me that's the most important thing to a judge ordered. friend dan dan and husbands shall jinx high social credit and give their son ribeiro a running start the provisions and protections of the party will be bestowed upon him so long as mom and dad keep the credits up there was a pad soldier in a position as a profile though the new system isn't perfect and from china likes to experiment on his creative way trying continuously make improvements to suit our society lunch about how difficult how hard should go short of actual what i see a positive future for and i hope that this new system will bring good things to the chinese people that gamble or shortly.
