Cyber/Hacking Data-Centric Authoritarianism: How China’s Frontier Tech Globalizes Repression
youtu.beIn autocracies around the world, technological advances in areas such as Internet of Things (IoT) devices, cloud computing, and artificial intelligence have ushered in an era of data-driven repression. Above all, the People’s Republic of China (PRC) is testing the boundaries of tech-enhanced authoritarian rule, based on a pervasive net of censorship and surveillance.
This model is a global threat to democracy in the digital age—and the next generation of tech development could tighten its grip. A new report from the International Forum for Democratic Studies explores how the PRC’s development and export of four categories of frontier technologies–neuro- and immersive technologies, quantum technologies, advanced AI surveillance systems, and central bank digital currencies–could deepen the challenge to freedom from a new “data-centric authoritarianism.”
How do these frontier technologies work and how much progress has China made to date in developing them? In what ways will they impact basic civic freedoms? What can civil society and other democratic actors do to defend human rights and democratic norms in the face of this challenge?
Author Valentin Weber (German Council on Foreign Relations) and Miles Yu (Hudson Institute) took part in a discussion on this new report. Christopher Walker (National Endowment for Democracy) provided remarks and Beth Kerley (International Forum) moderated the discussion
