the big western brands even at the origin of their base products which were network components was on. i spoke with an engineer alcatel who told me they discovered products they're identical to there is in china. chinese aircraft manufacturing china's high speed train which looks very much like a german high speed train it's part of how they built their industry stealing technology has been part of china's opening to the west since the beginning when shopping said china would now open its markets to the west. from. the u.s. on bail weeping charges against chinese tech giant huawei on monday formally accusing the company and its affiliate of stealing trade secrets to keep doing this

a while away employees under to pay $15.00 to steal t. mobile's robotic technology named tapi employees allegedly took numerous unauthorized photographs of tapping and secretly removed a part of it from a laboratory in washington state. all sorts of charges expose was always brazen and persistent actions to exploit american companies and financial institutions and to threaten the free and fair global marketplace. while it has a bad track record when it comes to intellectual property a great example of this is the pending lawsuit between the us government and walked away around a team mobile testing robot called happy and tapi is a device that is used to test smartphones. they stole

a robot arm during the visit and gave it back the next day with an apology as if they had left with the arm by accident and 24 hours later suddenly realized they had it only what's this doing here made all georgi do maybe i'm exaggerating but still they gave it back to avoid being accused of stealing a fish good ball the during the night they had totally disassembled and taken photos of all the parts to get all the info they needed. he's the indictment issued by the us justice system dated january 2900 regarding the team obama case in the united states vs what white signed by a federal prosecutor. eat the 28 page document lays out in black and white the e-mails that while i engineers on american soil exchange with the head office in china. i went once more to the a.t.m. most mechanical arm testing laboratory and gained an overall understanding of the environment i summarized and please take a look. once again we can't get any further information about the t.m.o.

robot system from t.m. oh they've complained to us a lot about this because we asked them too many questions about the robot on h.p.'s request t.m.o. said to me that if we asked them again such questions they want to allow us to use their robot lab. the place accepted but it's a classic case it's a part of their technique but don't let other countries do exactly the same thing. this is where we have to be careful because when it concerns our allies we tend to look the other way but when it surname is there's an outcry one interesting allegation that was part of the indictment was that wall way has essentially a bounty program where any employee who is able to compromise and watch a property of a competitor will get a bonus from the company if they access that intellectual property and post it on an internal server way accusations of industrial espionage denied by way the lawsuit is still ongoing and no judgment has yet been made by the u.s.

court. weighs spokesman insists that the company legally purchased foreign technologies but nonetheless admits to past areas. we collect royalties on our own i pay and we pay a lot of world these on other people's life and i believe each year we pay about $300000000.00 in royalties for various forms of technologies that we license you will hear some people say sometimes oh woe is a chinese company chinese companies cannot innovate they are copycats all they do is steal other people's technology and other people's ideas there may have been a time when that had a lot of truth to it but things have changed and huawei is at this point i think the 5th largest investor in r. and d.

that gives us a lot of our own intellectual property that we want to protect so we protect our own ip and we respect the ip of other companies. brackets wise h.q. in shenzhen in southern china. a megalopolis of 20000000 inhabitants. in. the city is considered to be the new silicon valley and on its own accounts for 10 percent of china's g.d.p. . and like in the rest of china the local authorities rely on an outright high performance network to operate smart surveillance cameras and. a symbol of a modernizing china sometimes excessively. and here if you cross the street your face and full name appear on a giant screen. and you receive

a text on your smartphone. these cameras are fitted with facial recognition. system widely accepted in china where respect and order a key values. technology to serve security. video surveillance to sort of connect to dissipate. the video surveillance network developed in china is called skynet. it comprises 500000000 cameras installed in urban rural areas by a number of chinese companies most of them a 50 foot facial recognition capable of identifying human faces and detecting suspicious movements on the street. in the long term the system will be able to scan the entire chinese population of a 1000000 and a half in one second. in this whole well in world

while weight is creating safe cities that would be entirely futuristic connected. and watch. one part of business out of hallways and that a lot of people know less about is in surveillance technology so the company calls it safe cities and they probably talk about this when you go to hallway headquarters they say one of their areas is safe cities and they talk about it in a very in a very nice way. and safe cities are kind of an extension of smart cities and smart just means basically connected to a network. our technology can recognize the license plate in the car in case there is a criminal in the car our company has employees facial recognition technology in case you have criminals in your city there are cameras that are basically connected to

a network and what they do is they allow police to project. police protection essentially. leshin you know china is obsessed with controlling society and one of the tools needed to do that is to see every. things like this 5 years ago there were already quite a few cameras but it was an excessive but in recent years in every chinese city you can see them everywhere everywhere all along the sidewalks there are posts with cameras to capture every pedestrian addictive and some are fitted with lights to take pictures at night to do yanno so these are clearly cameras for the facial recognition of citizens. we help city governments use digital technology to manage the city's better one aspect of the better management is safety.

while white only supplies its safe cities to the chinese government. but it explodes its model across the globe. there are now 230 cities in the world in 40 different countries. most capital cities in africa central asia and central america have to ploy the what way system but also belgrade in serbia and gelsen creation in germany on its website the company also promotes its city of the future . with everything needed for video surveillance a complete package to see and scrutinize everything which way is it junk province of china traffic behavior has changed tremendously after using bali for the camera . once more and ai enabled camera can look into certain details of each image specifically for example it can detect if someone is wearing a seat belt or not now the challenge is not just what the chinese are doing to watch that the other chinese people is that this chinese technology is being spread

out to other parts of the world to to watch people dalglish's facial recognition for to check the entire chinese population there but if you installed all that in european cities to morrow it would be exactly the same thing which will if she is in some ways worried about political stability he is. the feels fragile and so they have communications surveillance facial recognition other kinds of espionage and some countries say this is attracting a lot depends on what your government does so if you have a government that respects the rule of law and respects human rights using one way technology by itself doesn't mean you're in a police state but if you have a government where those are a little dicey you might want to be careful it's designed to control populations. in the case of surveillance cameras like 5 g.

once again it's the presumed connections between well weigh on the chinese government the people question. what would happen if beijing would to ask well wait for its foreign users data. wolf a video footage filmed by its cameras across the world. well way swears that its information will remain entirely confidential. to chinese law on intelligence passed in 2017 you sowing the seeds of doubt. china passed a law in 2017 a national intelligence law that says essentially no chinese company can refused to cooperate with the ministers security every chinese company must i it's the director of supplements states and this is unlike america you know tim cook the head of apple decides he doesn't want to work with the f.b.i.

and it goes to court there's a lot of squabbling and all this in china you decide not to cooperate you're going to end up harvesting turnips and mongolia if you're lucky. you said you don't like the u.s. has exactly the same law for shuttle so we need to be fair it is a little early what patriot act applied. just gaffed them to give the government their user data when there's a risk of terrorism or national security. in us from that location so the chinese merely passed a law that already existed in the us but there's nevertheless a difference if in the us i'm involved in a trade dispute i can file a lawsuit if it's a civil dispute i can file a lawsuit whereas the chinese justice system is political it belongs to the communist party and. the only presence of the chinese take. proof that technological dominance has become a major strategic issue. to rivals
