10 lakh Chinese CCTV cameras in Indian government offices

- Chinese espionage operates in many countries

- Occasional

- China is plagued by Trojan horse malware. Home appliances like fridges can be dangerous

China's espionage scandal is giving sleepless nights to many countries, especially America. China is also keeping an eye on India. China has probably misused information technology the most. China's attempts to get ahead of the US have been seen time and time again. After the US shot down a Chinese spy balloon, China's cyber-espionage spree exploded.

Many countries are now removing Chinese-made CCTV cameras. A former ambassador to London has warned the UK government about Beijing's covert moves, saying China can spy on ordinary people in the country through microchips. Chips in cars, refrigerators and light bulbs have become its weapon. The official said that a malware called a Trojan horse could pose a threat to the UK. This is also possible for India.

China is making all efforts to defeat India. China can use Trojan horse through 5-G technology. Once a Trojan horse enters any gadget, hackers sitting far away take advantage of it.

Chinese hacker gangs have been repeatedly attacking Indian websites. India keeps an eye on such websites, but no action can be taken against them as their servers are in China. China is full of deer in the field of technology. China does not trumpet its own technology and innovation.

China produced such a large scale of daily consumer goods that many small factories in many countries were closed. China maintained sales levels by creating some innovative products.

In India too, Chinese products directly affected small traders. Made in China was decried as antiquated, but its dumping policy posed a threat to many markets.

China was somehow intruding into other countries. Due to its dumping policy, America itself once objected. China has repeatedly challenged America as a superpower. By holding the industrial houses there as a hostage, China made them assume.

Back to the Chinese spying scandal. Snooping (espionage) was done using devices like internet protocol cameras, closed circuit television, internet operated digital video recording.

China's regional policy has been seen by the world. China was accused of preparing the virus corona virus in its lab in Wuhan. The then US President Donald Trump publicly called it the Wuhan virus.

At the time when the Indian and Chinese armies landed on Ladakh from Bathamba, there was information that China wanted to spread darkness everywhere by conducting a cyber attack on India's electricity load center located in that area.

The Indian government also said that two cyber attacks by China have been thwarted. Since then, India has become aware and increased cyber security in the power and telecom sectors.

90 percent of the 20 lakh CCTV cameras installed by India are made in China. Half of them are installed in government offices. We feel that Indian government should use indigenously made CCTV. The problem is that Chinese companies are partners in many CCTV manufacturing companies.
