China Bans Kids from Attending Church, Threatens Parents Who Break Law: Watchdog [They watch, and they track everybody in what they're doing – through facial recognition and other things.]

"It is getting worse," David Curry, president and CEO of Open Doors, told Christian Headlines....

Chinese Communist Party Chairman Xi Jinping "knows that he cannot stamp out" the nation's Christians, Curry said. There are an estimated 96 million Christians in China, the report says.

"And so he is slowly strangling Christian faith, and he's doing it with high-tech surveillance. They watch, and they track everybody in what they're doing – through facial recognition and other things. Imagine if the IRS owned every camera in every restaurant on every street in America. We would be very concerned that the IRS has that. China has that plus other means of surveilling, and so they have the ability to track and to score behavior."

Christians in China must attend government-approved churches that face heavy regulations, such as the editing of sermons. Because of that, many Christians attend illegal underground churches.

Curry summarized the surveillance strategy like this: "[These two citizens] are going to church too often. Therefore, they're not good communists. Therefore, they should lose their job. They can't fly – they're on a no-fly list."

Never forget, Google, worked with CCP China to design a system to track their electronic communications and create a “social credit score” so as to punish those who don’t think the right way.

Sort of what they and others in Big Tech are doing with censorship and cancel culture.

The Perfect Police State: An Undercover Odyssey into China’s Terrifying Surveillance Dystopia of the Future......... Geoffrey Cain

Blocked from facts and truth, under constant surveillance, surrounded by a hostile alien police force: Xinjiang’s Uyghur population has become cursed, oppressed, outcast. Most citizens cannot discern between enemy and friend. Social trust has been destroyed systematically. Friends betray each other, bosses snitch on employees, teachers expose their students, and children turn on their parents. Everyone is dependent on a government that nonetheless treats them with suspicion and contempt. Welcome to the Perfect Police State.

Using the haunting story of one young woman’s attempt to escape the vicious technological dystopia, his own reporting from Xinjiang, and extensive firsthand testimony from exiles, Geoffrey Cain reveals the extraordinary intrusiveness and power of the tech surveillance giants and the chilling implications for all our futures.

It is done in all of China..that is why they wanted Olympic athletes to use burner phones
