Photo by Ng Han Guan: Yang Guoliang shows a March 12, 2024, photo of him lying in a hospital bed after police beat him with bricks, as he sits in his home in Changzhou in eastern China’s Jiangsu Province, Sunday, Sept. 7, 2025
Part of the AP’s photo essay: Those caught in the dragnet of China’s digital cage enabled by U.S. tech
More information available in accompanying article: US tech companies enabled the surveillance and detention of hundreds of thousands in China
I had to reread the title six times in order to parse it.
It’s an image within an image of a man taking an image of the police officer setting up a police surveillance camera by his hospital bed after putting him there. Kinda meta
I tried changing the title but idk if that’s better or worse or if it really matters. In summary: We’re all fucked if we don’t stop the global oligarchs.
