[Financial Channel/Comprehensive Report] China’s penetration into the world has reached a pervasive state. In recent months, British intelligence agencies have begun to check whether the cars of officials and diplomats have been bugged by China. Dismantling found that some officials’ cars were stolen by China. Secretly installed a tracker and sent the data back to China, causing national security concerns.

The British media "inews" reported that due to concerns about spyware, British intelligence agencies dismantled the cars of ministerial officials and diplomats to check whether they were bugged.

It turned out that some cars had concealed SIM cards that could transmit addresses. The positioning device was contained in a sealed part inside the vehicle, which was imported from a Chinese supplier and installed by the car manufacturer.

British intelligence officials say intelligence officers have uncovered something disturbing after removing the car down to the last screw in a surgical-like procedure.

The tracking SIM card was able to track the movements of British government officials over months and years, building a rich profile of their activities and attesting to the way China eavesdropped on Western intelligence.

National security sources explained that these positioning devices can be installed in vehicles without the manufacturer's knowledge after being hidden in sealed parts provided by Chinese suppliers.

And automotive electronic control units (ECUs), which are mainly sourced from China, are embedded with SIM cards before being sealed and sent to automakers.

Iain Duncan Smith, the former leader of the British Conservative Party, said dissatisfiedly, I don't know how much more the threat Britain poses to China needs to know?

It's time for us to change the mode of censorship, it's time to label China a systemic threat.
