"Automated Racism": China's Hikvision still sells Uyghur-tracking surveillance, powered by America's Nvidia

ipvm.com Hikvision Uyghur Recognition, NVIDIA-Powered, Sold To PRC China Authorities

Hikvision promised that this had stopped, but a new PRC government document IPVM obtained shows the truth of the human rights abusing software.
