And the Chinese numbers are solid!
Does it matter if China’s are real? Ours are. And if China’s are worse we are all in big trouble.
Did you misspell “sold”?
;-)
Hardly “solid” - but I wouldn’t dismiss them either. They have massive, massive surveillance in that country — I work with Big Data and AI — and China has tons of that. If you walk out, to get out of buildings, into trains etc they scan your face, ID etc. They have cameras tracking your movement.
And WeChat/AliPay accounts for most transactions - in many places those are the ONLY options to pay, so you are tracked again.
If they want to lock down a city airtight, they can - it is a police state at the end of the day
