The implementation of the new 'Four Anti-Fraud Laws' has raised concerns about the potential infringement of human rights, especially regarding the controversial use of technology surveillance included in the laws. This has sparked debates about the government's extensive monitoring of online activities without prior court approval, potentially leading to a 'Big Brother Era'. Despite warnings from human rights groups, the laws are swiftly moving through the legislative process, covering various aspects of fraud prevention and investigation, including the legalization of controversial surveillance techniques like monitoring GPS signals and online activities of citizens. The laws also involve the utilization of advanced surveillance tools like the 'M-transformed vehicles' for tracking suspects and their communications, which has been a subject of legal disputes due to privacy concerns. Criticisms and reservations from lawmakers highlight the need for stricter safeguards to prevent human rights violations in the wake of technological advancements in law enforcement practices.
