[00:00:20] With this surveillance technology, they can absolutely control you before you even utter a word. [00:00:28] And with the social credit system, they absolutely enslave every Chinese. [00:00:33] And if you want to, if they suspect you, it's not even you want to do something against the government. [00:00:39] If they suspect that you might have something against government, they can absolutely end your life.
