Foreigners also need health codes. Viewpoint: The CCP is trying to monitor the world

The "health code" promoted by the CCP has been accused of monitoring the epidemic in the name of epidemic prevention. Recently, the authorities have issued new regulations requiring foreigners to use the green health code to board the plane when they travel to China.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Communist Party of China issued new regulations through embassies and consulates abroad. Take the United States as an example. Starting from December 1, the Chinese Embassy and Consulate in the United States will review and issue a QR code (health code) for the health declaration form with the "HDC" logo for foreign passengers travelling from the United States to China. Foreign passengers need to fill in information online, declare their health status, upload double-negative test certificates, personal passports, itineraries and other materials through the Chinese website; they must present the electronic or printed version of this QR code for aviation Company check. The CCP's embassies and consulates in Finland and Germany also made similar announcements.

The CCP introduced the "Health Code" when SARS-CoV-2 (CCP virus) was raging. Some local governments, led by Hangzhou, subsequently normalized it and forced the so-called "Health Code" to be promoted in the daily lives of citizens, whether shopping in the supermarket, taking the bus, or "Scan code" is required to go to work. Foreign media discovered early that the so-called health code data is shared with the public security system, and the relevant APP even sends the user's real-time location to the public security bureau.

Therefore, observers point out that although the CCP has been using big data to monitor the people in recent years, it rarely has such an opportunity to directly "rationalize" the monitoring. Until the outbreak of the CCP virus, the authorities can finally infringe upon personal privacy unscrupulously. It is estimated that it will be integrated into China in the future. In the social rating system, personal information is fully controlled.

Extending the health code to foreigners is the latest step in the CCP's comprehensive monitoring.

Internet observer Furukawa analyzed NTDTV: "When a foreigner enters China, it is difficult to grasp his information without this QR code; with the QR code, the situation is greatly changed... when you hold it. When this QR code enters mainland China, you must show the QR code if you want to travel and board the bus. Big data will know which bus you took, when and where. Then you stay in a hotel, and the hotel also requires you Show this QR code, this is the key role of the QR code."

Former Dalian Public Security Bureau Liu Xiaobin also believes that the CCP’s implementation of the so-called health QR code aims to monitor: “This in itself is an infringement of the personal information of foreigners. In fact, the so-called health code is voluntary in foreign countries. In China under the rule of the CCP, this thing has become mandatory. Almost everyone in the country has this health code, and it has already monitored the domestic people in real time through this health code. This is internationally, many countries Including democracies, they all believe that it is a violation of human rights, and such behavior is a violation of human rights."

The chief executive of Human Rights Watch, an international organization, recently issued a warning on social media regarding the CCP’s international health code proposal: “The software originally used for health issues can easily become a larger-scale political monitoring and elimination of dissidents."
