Much like the “every device is tapped” heuristic of security, There’s a simple heuristic for data:

If you create data anywhere, assume some govt will eventually get a copy

In reality that data will sit there unreviewed in 99.9999% of cases.

Just hope you’re not in that 0.0001%

I believe AI and LLMs will change that, unfortunately.

Believe it or not we’ve had the technology a long time to “look” or “track” everyone all the time. At this point it’s simply a political decison not to.

The leadership of the PRC with help from sensetime and other industrial leaders have a working and well tested comprehensive domestic individual tracking system in production. It’s been working well over a decade at this point.
