One very bad thing about being a police officer in the United States is that there are not many cameras in the entire city... According to the 2019 estimates of the famous information analysis company IHSMarkit, by the end of 2021, more than 1 billion will be deployed around the world.
54% of surveillance cameras are deployed in China, which is 540 million. Among them, Chongqing, Shenzhen, and Shanghai rank among the top 3 in the world. A research analysis published on July 11, 2022, if based on a lower estimate
Numerical calculation means that China has deployed 540 million surveillance cameras, with an average of 372.8 surveillance cameras per 1,000 people; if calculated based on higher estimates, China has deployed 626 million surveillance cameras, with an average of 432.2 surveillance cameras per 1,000 people.
Surveillance cameras. No matter which number is calculated, its ratio is hundreds of times higher than that of the other more than 100 most populous cities in the world. For example, Tokyo, the capital of Japan, the largest city in the world, has an average of only 1.06 surveillance cameras per 1,000 people; fifth
Mexico City, the capital of Mexico, has an average of 3.62 surveillance cameras per 1,000 people. New York, the largest city in the United States, has an average of 6.87 surveillance cameras per 1,000 people; Los Angeles, the second largest city, has an average of 8.77 surveillance cameras per 1,000 people.
Of course, many people will say that Americans do this because they want to protect privacy... There is nothing wrong with this. But China's cameras are not placed in your home, they are in the streets or other public places...
Is installing cameras in public places an invasion of privacy?
What's wrong?
However, is this really the case? Not necessarily. Most states in the United States do not have fine cameras. The reason is public opposition. The reason is that the cameras are a money-making tool for certain interest groups and cannot save lives. Moreover, the cameras
Maintenance costs are high. It is better to invest the money in other industries... Yes, it is a cost issue. Surveillance in the United States is very expensive! Whether it is the surveillance camera itself or the installation and maintenance costs, they are all expensive.
Of course, there is another way to say it.
The American media gave another explanation: Modern surveillance technology makes it impossible for American spies to hide!
A report titled "Biometrics, smartphones and surveillance cameras create new obstacles for U.S. spies" published on the website of the U.S. Wall Street Journal on November 27 stated that modern technology makes it difficult for U.S. spies to hide. The full text is excerpted as follows: In 2010, a
A covert operation planned by a team of agents widely suspected of working for the Israeli spy agency Mossad killed a Dubai-based militant. The plan was successful, except for its secrecy - it was followed by closed-circuit cameras
Every move of the team was even captured before and after they were in disguise.
Once upon a time, a well-trained CIA agent could cross a border with a folder full of documents under a pseudonym, or move confidently through a foreign city, connecting with other agents without being detected. Now, he or she
Faced with the digital barriers that are hallmarks of modern life: ubiquitous surveillance cameras and border controls utilizing biometrics, not to mention smartphones, watches and cars that often reveal their whereabouts. Plus, there’s “digital dust”
, the personal records that nearly everyone leaves behind on the Internet. Combined with advances in artificial intelligence that can quickly sift through such data, these technologies are quickly becoming foreign, say current and former officials in the U.S. and Western intelligence communities.
A powerful tool for adversaries to root out spies. A task force from the Center for Strategic and International Studies think tank said in a report that CIA officers "will strive to remain invisible and operate covertly and will face the long-term risk of exposure - exposing themselves, their agents
and the way they conduct espionage operations." Several former officials said that the use of pseudonyms across national borders is quickly becoming a thing of the past thanks to biometric technologies such as facial recognition and iris scanning. A retired Western intelligence official said: "Intelligence agents
It’s more difficult to disguise yourself with a pseudonym.” He estimates that he has used nine false identities in his career, all with corresponding credit cards.
More espionage activities will be carried out under "real names," meaning that spies will not pretend to be someone else, but will act under the cover of businessmen, academics, or other professionals with no obvious ties to the U.S. government. At the same time, espionage is increasingly becoming a
A team sport. In the past, a single spy planned and executed an operation alone. In the future, a team will be needed to help guard against digital surveillance and guide CIA officers around it. These undertakings require more time, personnel and other resources.
This is why Americans hate foreign electronic products entering their country.
They especially hate companies that don't let them open back doors!
So the U.S. government is actually not willing to install surveillance by itself... Firstly, it's too expensive. Secondly, it's not worth it. Because they can use the backdoors of all electronic devices to conduct all-round surveillance, so why use such a backward method of surveillance?
?
"Hey... Is this illegal? This is a serious violation of citizens' privacy rights!" Jessica was taken to the underground computer room of Stark Tower!
Here, there is a huge supercomputer, which is also the body of Jarvis... It is relying on such powerful computing power that makes Jarvis look so smart. In fact, until now, Jarvis is not
Real artificial intelligence.
Real artificial intelligence should have the following characteristics:
Creativity: Real artificial intelligence has the ability to think independently, innovate and invent, and can create new knowledge and technology based on existing knowledge and experience.
Initiative: Real artificial intelligence can actively ask questions, seek information, explore and reason, rather than just passively accepting tasks and instructions.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Consciousness: Real artificial intelligence has conscious activities such as self-cognition, self-simulation and self-regulation, and can analyze and reflect on its own status and behavior.
This is obviously not something that can be solved by computing power. Jarvis just looks like artificial intelligence, but in fact it is not. It has no real autonomous consciousness and initiative. All its actions are carried out based on set programs.
…
That's too far.
This huge supercomputer is also connected to the Internet!
Tony once tried a special super program that could hack into all electronic devices anytime and anywhere to find the information he wanted, and there was help from Hydra. They had defeated Hydra's insight.
During the plan, the underlying code of the penetration plan left by Hydra scientist Arnim Zola was obtained.
Relying on this code, Pierce and Nick Fury later developed the Insight Project.
Insight planning is a manifestation of comprehensive capabilities and comprehensive strategies, aiming to go deep into the essence of things or problems, and formulate strategies through observation, analysis and judgment. It involves in-depth observation of various things, especially the observation and analysis of big data.
Analysis to predict and respond to potential threats. The core of the Insight Plan lies in "big data observation and analysis", by accurately collecting everyone's behavioral data, including deposit data, account flow data, consumption data, taxi records, scientific research
As a result, each person's future can be predicted based on their school grades, work and rest patterns, and even housing records. Through satellite detection and data analysis, this system can comprehensively analyze the trends and historical performance of all behavioral data, thereby accurately predicting each person's future.
Personal future. The purpose of the Insight Project is to nip many threats in the cradle. Through this predictive ability, organizations such as Hydra try to control mankind and establish a new order, and mankind may lose their freedom as a result.
Of course, after Tony got this thing, he didn't intend to build it into a tool for world domination. He just regarded it as one of the cornerstones of true artificial intelligence.
As the saying goes, there is no good or evil in a knife, good or evil depends on the person holding the knife!
Of course, Tony also knew how sensitive this thing was, so he never used it after making it... If the US government knew about it, it would definitely get it as soon as possible.
Tony had no interest in causing trouble for himself.
"This is what your boss personally asked me to do." It's true... Kai did ask Tony to do this. But he himself had no intention of abusing this thing. But what if it happens? It's always better to have more cards in your hand.
of.
"By the way, after you find out, you must keep this matter in your heart and no one can tell it, otherwise Kai and I will be in big trouble."
Faced with Tony's warning, Jessica nodded seriously.
If it was Tony alone, Jessica would definitely not be that concerned about it. Firstly, she was very resistant to this stuff, and no one wanted to see everything about them. Secondly, she felt that if she really had to meet him in the future,
If you're in trouble, maybe you can borrow it. So why do you want to keep Tony's secret?
But with Kai, it's different.
Kai is her savior, saving her from hell so that she can become a police officer and no longer be affected by the nightmare she once had.
Jessica cannot forget this kindness... and to be honest, Jessica has always had some thoughts about Kai, and she has not hidden it herself. Otherwise, she would not have even had a serious relationship in these years.
But... you have to know that Jessica was not very disciplined in her private life before.
"I know, let's investigate the case quickly!"
"Okay! Jarvis! Start executing the penetration sequence!"
Jessica looked at Tony with a complicated face, this name is simply...
Although the chaos caused by the Penetration Project did not cause many casualties, at least not many innocent people were killed or injured, the impact was very large.
It even caused shock to the US government for a time.
I almost lost my credibility.
Speaking of which, it's Black Widow's fault. Black Widow was completely disappointed with SHIELD at the time, so she turned around and posted the whole story of the Penetration Project online, so people all over the world knew that SHIELD had launched such a project.
Being able to monitor people all over the world... At that time, there was a lot of excitement in various countries.
Americans are not much better.
Americans do care about personal privacy, although they actually have no personal privacy. For a long time, the U.S. government and its related agencies have relied on their own technological advantages to conduct large-scale and indiscriminate surveillance and theft of secrets around the world, both on their own citizens and on others.
The United States’ surveillance operations against foreign governments, companies and individuals have reached the point of being wanton and lawless, seriously violating international law and basic norms of international relations. Facts have repeatedly proven that the United States is a “surveillance empire” that endangers the world. Georgetown University Privacy &
The Technology Law Center released a report titled "America's Dragnet: Data-Driven Deportations in the 21st Century." The report revealed that over the years, the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement Agency has carefully woven a complex and vast surveillance network.
Goes far beyond its duties as an immigration agency.
In fact, the United States began to monitor and censor communications in and out of the United States during World War I and World War II. Since then, its large-scale surveillance practices continued throughout the Cold War. During the American Civil Rights Movement, many American people were still placed under
Under the government surveillance order. In 1972, the Watergate incident occurred in the United States, and the abuse of power and illegal surveillance led to a political scandal. With the development of the FBI, CIA, National Security Agency and other agencies, surveillance in the United States became institutionalized. Especially
After the "9/11" incident, the U.S. government continued to expand security through legislation such as the Patriot Act, the Protecting America Act, and the 2008 Amendment to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act in the name of "national security" and "anti-terrorism."
Agency authority. Although Snowden, a former U.S. defense contractor employee, and the "WikiLeaks" website exposed the abuse of surveillance in the United States, the United States was under pressure to pass a bill to end domestic surveillance programs in the United States in 2015. However, in fact
, U.S. intelligence agencies and other departments still continue to conduct extensive surveillance without authorization.
But as long as you don't talk about this stuff, everyone will pretend they don't know about it. However, Black Widow actually exposed this matter directly to the whole world, and everyone lost face.
Fortunately, Nick Fury took the blame, so this matter did not continue to escalate.
After all, the United States was the first to encounter it. If it was the United States' fault, how could it have caused a thunderstorm in the United States?
Therefore, for a long time, the Insight Project is probably a nightmare in the minds of Americans...including the US government.
"It's just a name. This thing won't be made public, so it doesn't matter what it's called."
"It's best...if it's exposed, you'd better be prepared to take the blame alone. Our boss won't accompany you to be infamy for forever!" Jessica threatened!
"Hey! You're the one who agreed to keep it a secret, right?!!" Tony was very unhappy with Jessica's threat, why did he say that to me?
"Humph! Did you keep it a secret?" Jessica looked at Tony with disdain.
Tony looked at Jessica...speechless...You said I would support you at all costs, that's why I brought you here, but you turned out to be the best, and it became my fault...This
