This great article by David Mattin is another Black Mirror episode of what is happening in China now, and could be on your doorstep in the not too distant future… so beware and keep eyes open.

I quoted Tristan earlier in [this post](http://community.humanetech.com/t/what-are-your-greatest-concerns-with-technology/2087/5):
