EXCLUSIVE: Sky News host Sharri Markson has revealed a major security leak which has uncovered the Chinese government’s surveillance of yet another ethnic minority group. Ms Markson, on her program on Sky News, has revealed how Chinese activists have now uncovered a new facial recognition database targeting an ethnic minority group. The Chinese Communist Party has previously used facial recognition to target minority groups including the Uighurs and Tibetans, by using high-tech surveillance which is then mobilized to imprison dissidents in indoctrination camps. “Concerned Chinese activists have leaked this database and its IP address to an international group of cyber security analysts who specialise in China,” Ms Markson said. “This surveillance database is targeting the Tujia and Miao Autonomous Zone in the city of Tongren in central southern China.
