China has cautioned amateur military fans about the risks of uploading photographs of its private military hardware online in order to prevent harming national security. China’s counterintelligence agency allegedly posted the alert on WeChat, according to an account. The article addressed concerns about “military fans” disseminating news to a larger audience through social media platforms like Weibo, which have hundreds of millions of active users. China’s army is rapidly modernizing, therefore these pictures are starting to appear frequently.
The organization said unequivocally that repeat offenders of the rule might get a maximum punishment of seven years in prison. Infrequent or first-time offenders might only get a warning. The South China Morning Post (SCMP) reports that it made particular mention of how these images will demonstrate military technological advances, such as aircraft carriers. Defense planning may be impacted because it makes the deployment location and type of military weapons public. The SCMP research revealed that there were repercussions for people who used professional equipment, such as drones and telephoto lenses, to secretly snap images of military weapons. In 2021, one of these people was found guilty and sentenced to prison for allegedly using the Fujian aircraft carrier as a cover for illegal state secret collection.
