Chinese highways have cameras every couple of minutes that check if you are wearing your seatbelt, texting and driving, or speeding. They text you a ticket immediately if they detect a violation. They also upload your location to a database so they can track where you are. https://video.nostr.build/c65c62e60d23f98ab5ab1ca530826b9d6226be0210c1525c9355d8de796696b0.mp4

Interesting šŸ¤” how long are you staying in China? 🤩

I bet there are a ton of people in the US that would welcome it, if I'm being honest.

What? China is a totalitarian surveillance state? I'm genuinely shocked šŸ˜‚

We have the exact same technology here in the USA doing the same thing.

We have license plate readers that local police are using to track you everywhere.

We have license plate readers tracking you and sending you toll violations for ā€œcongestion pricingā€.

We have cameras taking pictures of you and your vehicle everywhere tracking your speed. If you violate speed limits you get violations in the mail at your vehicle’s registered address. And if you don’t pay the violations your vehicle gets booted and towed.

What is the difference between China and the USA?
