Here, an article (from June 2025) about Chinese buses full of cameras and other sensors driven regularly inside secret Norwegian army bases. Those buses are to be used during a war or a crisis.
I’m with you.
I’m arguing that crippled antitrust and anti-consumer practices are part of the problem that led to Chinese buses full of cameras being deployed in western countries.
I’ll go a step further and claim DMCA, anti-reverse engineering and other copyright-protection policies have further crippled the ability of the west to detect and prevent such foreign tech influence.
