```In some locales, authorities have put QR codes on every home.[176]Xinjiang is not the only region in which the Chinese authorities have put QR codes on residences, however, and authorities claim these “smart” doorplates help with both population control and service delivery.[177] In Xinjiang, officials scan the doorplates with their mobile devices when they enter to monitor the inhabitants:

Starting from spring 2017, every … home, where one enters, there’s a QR code. Then every two days or every day, the cadres come and scan the QR code, so they know how many people live here, and starting around then, they would ask [our] visitors ‘Why are you here?’... In the evenings the cadres would check as well.[178]
```

yeah mostly just the symbolism + the other stuff they're doing

also lol qr codes on kitchen knifes

```Other security measures include requiring people in some locales to put QR codes on certain types of knives, including kitchen and craft knives, and linking the codes to their ID card numbers.[28] In Xinjiang’s capital, Urumqi, all liquids – including water – lighters, and powders are banned from public transport.[29]

tbh don't know why it's the qr codes on doors getting attention - guess it's just the image that lets it

yeah they're not cheap

Can't you just grind it away anyway?

the qr code?

yeah but they'd prob fine/arrest you/whatever if you got caught

Why would it matter though?

They probably have to register when buying them

hard to trace a fairly generic looking meat cleaver though to anyone

https://chinadigitaltimes.net/2017/10/xinjiang-household-knives-must-ided/ also looks like it applies to any knife even old ones in some places

*Whos missing a knife*
*Huang is missing a knife*
*Why didn't Huang report it and why was it found in a murder case?*
Rip huang

>above 10 cm
It's like they believe you can't kill people with a 9 cm knife

Or that its hard to hammer out a peice of pipe or sharpen a flat peice of metal for kebabry

^ " if you do this use hollow pipe and grind holes in 45° angle away from strike direction along the head. Incase you need to leave it in it, keeps blood flowing" ofc i dont suggest anyone doing this but its on the manual :P

Who really cares tho, they are pretty much completly closed off with no hope of resupply even if they manage to stage a small scale insurrection.

It would just be the ccp curb stomping some rebels with pipe guns.

Of course open revolt won't work

But guerilla, taking one or two officers down in between

And then what?

When moral falls, officers will keep off your homes and shit

Less influence of ccp etc

Because I am 99% certain china is close to just taking kids away from them and indoctrinating them in 'private schools' for 'protection against child abuse'

And I'm talking to drunkster...

The noose tightens the more you struggle

Go to bed mate

I dont see how this would work given the history of their actions and responses in the region

And I would if my stomach wasnt eating itself from the inside for some reason.

Wait. Did you really buy the meme I'm drunk all the time
