Should be the other way around if something is said here that manages to attract their censors the site itself could be blocked.


Those who've lived / live, there have their own views...It is interesting in talking to some of my
students about whats going...some of them where in Tiananmen Square during that time.

No you are wrong, at least in my case, I’ve never needed to show any identification when getting of the train(out of the train station) just show my train ticket....But yes when I “check in” to the train station I show my passport which the controller hardly look at, the ticket is a little more interesting which they glance at for a second......But as i said getting on or of the train no identification is never flashed and certainly no police walking the trains......Now i begin to get some Twilight chills from you guys 8-)

Some here already think and worries that’s already happening, to the point they dare not write Falun-Gong...But I tell you for sure the CIA and FBI are watching us here on.....








Just kidding....... :o

i am guessing that if they hired someone to do that -
that person could probably accumulate enough citizen points to ride the train without having to show a passport...
hahahahaha

The train stations here are full of highly appointed citizens, domestically traveling they don’t need passports....8-)


Talking about traveling, yesterday I read that the trouble maker Joshua(Jesus !?)Wong who had been detained was released on bail and are now traveling to Germany(should have arrived by now)

Two protesters were shot by police in Tsuen Wan today in Hong Kong. The twitter video uploaded to streamable shows a lot that happened before the shooting and the youtube vid begins immediately prior and has annotations. They're both a couple of minutes.

Original link from twitter, somewhat graphic

Youtube vid begins just prior to shooting and is pretty graphic. It's age restricted.

update

At Quartz, Jane Li reports on a statement released late last month by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, that anyone applying for a new mobile and data service plan will need to have their faces scanned by their telecom provider.

Effective December 1,

this new verification requirement is an update of longstanding real-name verification regulations for cell phone and internet platform registration, and is the latest regulation to tighten the Xi administration’s control over internet access.


As anticipated, the Hong Kong government on Friday enacted colonial-era emergency powers–for the first time in over 50 years–allowing them to declare the use of face masks, paint, or any other facial obstruction illegal at public gatherings, punishable by fines and six months jail time.

The mask ban comes into effect on October 5, Chief Executive Carrie Lam...

The facial recognition for phones is only in the mainland. HK has privacy regulations against needing an ID for a phone, but mainland has had a strict ID requirement for about 7 years. Adding the facial recognition is just the latest increase in the surveillance state and an attempt to prevent ayi's from stealing all the toilet paper. https://streamable.com/wkuj2

China uses facial recognition software to crack down on toilet paper theft

As far as a regulation against masks or face paint at public gatherings, it's one of those things that cut both ways.

In addition to the beastial aspect, I would object to them putting the chip so close acupoint Large Intestine 4. Probably more healthy to just go ahead and get the brain chip implant since that area is not critical for most people.
