China’s finely crafted web of digital surveillance for the Beijing Olympics has been years in the making
The full extent of China’s domestic security state has been unclear since 2013, when the Finance Ministry stopped disclosing it after years of greater spending on internal security than on defense. What is known is that extensive upgrades to state surveillance have been pursued across China in recent years. This surveillance state 2.0 has been built by police budgets, creating a vast market for leading Chinese companies that bring emerging technologies to bear on catching and preventing perceived sources of social instability.https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/winter-olympics/china-e2-80-99s-finely-crafted-web-of-digital-surveillance-for-the-beijing-olympics-has-been-years-in-the-making/ar-AATodn7
Spying. Human Rights. Covid-19. Beijing Olympic Athletes Face the Most Complex Games Ever.
Politics has always been intertwined with the Olympics. The 1980 Moscow Games and 1984 Los Angeles Olympics saw significant boycotts. Controversy surrounded the 1936 Winter and Summer Olympics in Nazi Germany and the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing. The U.S. and others are observing a diplomatic boycott of the 2022 Beijing Games. The Biden administration isn’t sending any high-ranking officials. The White House cited China’s campaign to forcibly assimilate ethnic Uyghurs and other mostly Muslim minorities in the Xinjiang region. The U.S. and other governments, as well as human-rights activists, say that Beijing has put as many as one million people in detention centers, subjecting some to forced labor and sterilization. China denies those allegations, describing the camps as vocational centers that improve livelihoods and combat religious extremism.

‘Red-Handed’: 23 Former U.S. Senators and Congressmen Who Lobby for Chinese Military or Chinese Intelligence-Linked Companies
Many lawmakers cash in after leaving office by becoming lobbyists for corporations and other special interests. But one would hope that they would not become advocates for America’s primary economic and political adversary — communist China — by lobbying for outcomes that run counter to the United States’ long-term interests. However, Schweizer’s book reveals that many former congressional leaders, committee chairman, and rank-and-file members are lobbying for Chinese intelligence and military-linked companies.https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2022/01/31/red-handed-23-former-u-s-senators-and-congressmen-who-lobby-for-chinese-military-or-chinese-intelligence-linked-companies/

Here’s why Morgan Stanley is cutting its forecast for China’s first quarter GDP
The economic costs of China’s zero-Covid policy are increasingly expected to outweigh its benefits, according to U.S. investment bank Morgan Stanley. China’s zero tolerance for Covid leaves the country at a disadvantage compared to other countries with an endemic strategy, its chief China equity strategist Laura Wang told CNBC’s Emily Tan. In January, the U.S. investment bank cut its forecast for China’s first quarter GDP — lowering estimates to 4.5% growth year-on-year, from its previous prediction of 4.9%.
