The Chinese government has launched a new device to destroy confiscated smartphones and extract data from them. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
According to TechCrunch, this device allows Chinese law enforcement agencies to easily access contacts, messages, photos, and other personal information on the phones. The device is primarily used on the phones of individuals who have been detained and are under investigation.
Experts believe that this technology poses a serious threat to human rights and personal privacy. The device operates without an internet connection and connects directly to the phone.
Moreover, it is capable of bypassing biometric protections such as facial recognition or fingerprints, rather than passwords. This new device enables government agencies to obtain data quickly and efficiently, but it raises further concerns about the protection of privacy rights.
For this reason, experts emphasize the need for caution in its application.
