They see nations as either potential adversaries or potential client states, to be threatened, bribed, or coerced.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The remarks are Fleming\u2019s latest public warnings about Beijing\u2019s behaviour and aspirations. Last year, he said the West faced a battle to ensure China did not dominate important emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, synthetic biology and genetics. <\/p>\n<p>Fleming will say the Chinese leadership was driven by a fear of their own citizens, of freedom of speech, of free trade and open technological standards and alliances, \u201cthe whole open, democratic order and the international rules-based system.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>That fear combined with China\u2019s strength was driving it \u201cinto actions that could represent a huge threat to us all,\u201d he will say.<\/p>\n<p>China has previously described similar accusations from Western governments as being groundless and politically motivated smears.  <\/p>\n<p>Fleming will also highlight technologies where he says China is seeking to gain leverage, such as its development of a centralised, digital currency to allow it to monitor the transactions of users, as well as to possibly evade the sort of sanctions Russia has faced since its invasion of Ukraine.<\/p>\n<p>He will also point to Beidou, China\u2019s answer to the U.S.-owned GPS navigation system.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMany believe that China is building a powerful anti-satellite capability, with a doctrine of denying other nations access to space in the event of a conflict,\u201d he will say. \u201cAnd there are fears the technology could be used to track individuals.\u201d<\/p>\n<p> (Reporting by Michael Holden in London; Editing by Matthew Lewis)<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/uncategorized\/fear-driving-chinas-tech\/attachment\/file-photo-gchq-director-jeremy-fleming-delivers-a-speech-to\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/tagreuters.com2022binary_LYNXMPEI9910Z-BASEIMAGE.jpg\" alt=\"tagreuters.com2022binary_LYNXMPEI9910Z-BASEIMAGE\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>LONDON (Reuters) \u2013 China is using its financial and scientific muscle to manipulate technologies in a manner that risks global security, Britain\u2019s top cyber spy will say on Tuesday, warning<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":66,"featured_media":2315279,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1682212","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1682212","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/66"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1682212"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1682212\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2315279"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1682212"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1682212"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1682212"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
