China Harvests Droves of Data From Western Social Media
According to a new report from The Washington Post, China is tapping Western social media to provide its military and police with information about foreign targets. This revelation came after reviewing hundreds of Chinese bidding documents, contracts and company documents.
The new report claims that China has a nationwide data monitoring service network that has been developed in the past decade to warn officials of politically sensitive information online.
The software is aimed at domestic Internet users and media, and also collects data on foreign targets from sources such as Twitter, Facebook, and other Western social media. Documents visited by the Washington-based publication also showed that Chinese institutions, including the official media, the Ministry of Propaganda, the police, the military, and network regulators are buying new or more complex systems to collect data.
The report pointed out that China’s official media software programs mine Twitter and Facebook to create a database of foreign journalists and scholars.
The report further revealed that an intelligence project of the Beijing police analyzed Western content about Hong Kong and Taiwan. It also cataloged Uyghur content abroad. “Now we can better understand the underground network of anti-China personnel,” said a Beijing analyst who works in a unit reporting to China’s Central Propaganda Department.
According to the report, the department was responsible for producing a data report on how negative content related to Beijing’s top leaders was spread on Twitter, including profiles of individual scholars, politicians, and journalists.
Mareike Ohlberg, a senior researcher at the German Marshall Fund, quoted the German Marshall Fund as saying: “They are now adjusting part of their efforts outwards. Frankly speaking, this is terrible. Look at the huge volume and scale that this brings within China.” The Washington Post. She added: “This does show that they now feel that it is their responsibility to defend China overseas and fight public opinion overseas.”

Surfaces of the Motorola Edge 50 Ultra with Snapdragon 8S Gen 3
Early this week, renders of the Edge 50 Fusion appeared, and Motorola has previously stated that the Edge 50 Pro will ship on April 3. The highest-end smartphone in the Edge 50 series, the Edge 50 Ultra, has now been shown in renders.
The phone is depicted in the renderings in peach fuzz and black with a vegan leather finish, while sisal, a beige color, will have a brushed surface. As opposed to the Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 in the Pro variant and the Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 in the Edge 50 Fusion, the phone is reportedly powered by the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 SoC.
A 50MP primary camera, an ultra-wide camera, and a periscope telephoto camera with a 5x optical zoom are all included in the Motorola Edge 50 Ultra’s feature set. Additionally, there is a triple LED flash on the right side and a laser autofocus feature above the periscope lens.
Although the phone’s display, battery, and charging specifications are yet unknown, the Edge 50 Pro is said to include 12GB of RAM and support both 50W and 125W wired and wireless charging.
It is anticipated that this will launch as the Motorola X50 Ultra in China. It is unclear if the India launch may be expected on the same day as the rest of the Edge 50 series phones, even if this is scheduled to go official on April 3.
