Based on hours of interviews with camp survivors and workers, thousands of government documents, and over a decade of research, Darren Byler, one of the leading experts on Uyghur society and Chinese surveillance systems, uncovers how a vast network of technology provided by private companies-facial surveillance, voice recognition, smartphone data-enabled the state and corporations to blacklist millions of Uyghurs because of their religious and cultural practice starting in 2017. Charged with "pre-crimes" that sometimes consist only of installing social media apps, detainees were put in camps to "study"-forced to praise the Chinese government, renounce Islam, disavow families, and labor in factories. Byler travels back to Xinjiang to reveal how the convenience of smartphones have doomed the Uyghurs to catastrophe, and makes the case that the technology is being used all over the world, sold by tech companies from Beijing to Seattle producing new forms of unfreedom for vulnerable people around the world"--|cProvided by publisher. 650 0 Internment camps|zChina. 650 0 Penal colonies|zChina. 650 0 Uighur (Turkic people)|zChina|xSocial conditions. 650 0 Electronic surveillance|zChina. 650 7 Concentration camps.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00872933 650 7 Electronic surveillance.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00907477 650 7 Penal colonies.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01056803 651 7 China.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01206073 776 08 |iOnline version:|aByler, Darren.|tIn the camps|dNew York, NY : Columbia Global Reports, [2021]|z9781735913636|w(DLC) 2021017639 994 C0|bMCP
