Leaked documents suggest that Chinese firm Geedge Networks is developing AI that analyzes internet activity, location data, social media behavior, and other digital records to identify people who might become political dissidents.

According to researchers at Vanderbilt University, the system is designed to create citizen profiles and assess potential political risk.

On this 31st anniversary of Panchen Lama’s enforced disappearance, Tibetans and supporters around the world continue to stand in solidarity and call on the Chinese government to reveal the truth about Tibet’s Panchen Lama.

A single email account linked to mainland China allegedly carried out a 114 day campaign of transnational repression across 6 countries. Targets included Falun Gong practitioners, Shen Yun, theaters, government offices, Buckingham Palace, and Canada’s Parliament Hill.

The tactics were chilling. Bomb threats. Death threats. Harassment campaigns. False flag operations meant to frame dissidents themselves.

This is how the CCP’s intimidation network operates beyond China’s borders. Democracies cannot ignore a regime that exports fear, censorship, and political coercion around the world.

The Chinese government should end political indoctrination in early childhood and ensure that Tibetan children are able to learn and use Tibetan in kindergartens.

By severely limiting Tibetan-language education in early childhood, and imposing ideological indoctrination on kindergarten children, the Chinese government is speeding up its erasure of Tibetan language and culture.

[Human Rights Watch @hrw]

NEW: The Chinese government is imposing Chinese-medium education and ideological indoctrination on kindergarten children in its efforts to force Tibetans to assimilate.

In a new report, HRW documents that a 2021 Ministry of Education directive—the Children’s Speech Harmonization plan—mandates the use of standard Mandarin Chinese for all preschool instruction in ethnic minority areas.

The cancellation of RightsCon just days before kick-off demonstrates the lengths the CCP will go to prevent those on the frontlines of freedom from working in common cause.

This not only undermines months of preparations by more than 750 institutions from all around the world—it also sets a dangerous precedent for how the CCP and other authoritarian actors can disrupt spaces they perceive as threats to their repressive models.

As authoritarian actors expand their reach, @NEDemocracy partners are helping people communicate safely, overcome censorship, strengthen digital security, and use emerging technologies in defense of freedom. We will continue to support those working to ensure technology remains a force for freedom in the world.

"The recent multistakeholder gatherings like #RightsCon is also a reminder of the threats China poses to digital governance more broadly through its state-centric model, and why its attempts to cloak its efforts in the language of diplomacy and multilateralism must be rejected."

RSF just launched season 2 of its Propaganda Monitor — this time on China. Having spent 1,019 days in a CCP cell, I know something about how Beijing controls information. The findings are important. 🧵👇 1/10
