Scary indeed. Did you notice the comment: "There are issues of safety and privacy, But Chinese people care more about safety."

Did anyone ask the Chinese people?

Reminds me of that Tom Cruise SCi-Fi movie "Minority Report" -- The "authorities" of the future will know who will commit a crime before it happens, so they will arrest and sentence him beforehand to "protect" their society.

There is actually scientific basis for this.

1. Lie specialists can see a dangerous, threatening, scary behavior in people that takes place when they are planning on committing a crime. This is what screeners at airports and the FBI at political rallies are trained to look for.

2. Govt officials will have a list of "persons of interest". Perhaps someone raving about a government official on social media, etc.

3. Computers can quickly find these people and if they have been frequenting a landmark (say Brooklyn Bridge) it may alert them that they are scouting out a place to attack.

4. We use this technology at the Superbowl and other high profile events.

5. Airports are currently screening people for flu like symptoms to try and reduce the spread of contagious diseases.

You may think China is scary, but that is the future we are all headed to. Imagine a crime is committed and we can immediately track the suspects every step prior to the crime and after the crime. This will greatly reduce crime, increase conviction rates, and cut the costs to police and justice dept.

For example, the DC sniper would have been caught within two or three hours.
