Silk Road of Surveillance

Abstract

47-page report from Justice for Myanmar drawing on the Geedge/MESA leak to document the export of Chinese GFW-derived surveillance technology to Myanmar's military regime via the Belt and Road framework. Identifies specific deployments and the corporate channels through which Geedge Networks supplied the regime.

Team notes

Adds "mm" (Myanmar) to the censor scope of the corpus. Operationally most relevant for Lantern users in Myanmar; threat model converges on the GFW threat model since the deployed system is GFW-derived. Worth checking whether the corpus taxonomy has a Myanmar entry yet (TODO: add to schema/taxonomy.yaml if not).
