For years now, people have started questioning whether opposition and protests to things have been organic. Numerous stories have emerged in recent years of protestors against ICE, abortion, and President Trump have been bought and paid for by people on the Left. While nothing has ever been admitted, the big has been planted in people's minds, and now, there is another story to give it even more legs.

A Fox News Digital investigation revealed recently that the same network behind the "No Kings" protest network are the ones leading the charge against data center expansion and Flock cameras. While the latter has plenty of issues, the former is a necessary advancement we have to have to push America forward. Something the Left seems hellbent on impeding.

Embedded in the connections pro-China, Shanghai-based tech tycoon Neville Roy-Singham, who was born in Connecticut. He has been spearheading a gigantic nonprofit and a media network that has faced intense scrutiny over its funding and the ties to foreign adversaries. In short, it is believed he is a Chinese agent, and it under investigation by multiple countries for that very thing.

Data expert Michael Lucci says if Roy-Singham's name is connected to something, it usually means there is an angle for the Chinese.

"Anything he is funding, especially anti-data center or anti-American technology...we should assume is associated with Chinese intelligence activities," he says.

Of course, all of that is alleged, as Roy-Singham has not been convicted of anything. But it just raises eyebrows and more burning questions of if any of this is organic and if not, why is it happening in the first place. The simple answer is that China wants to become the global superpower, and hindering American technological advancement is the only way of doing that. That starts with trying to demonize data center growth, which vaults them to the forefront of AI.

But the second part of the equation is the Flock cameras. Yes, the cameras are unpopular among Americans, and no one wants completely unwarranted surveillance. However, there are positive aspects to them, the biggest being the apprehension of criminals. But there is outrage building against them, and that is yet another positive for the Chinese.

For years, the Chinese have been filtering in surveillance and spyware technology through cameras of their own. Ones we buy in stores and take home, ones we use to watch our baby's crib, everything. That needs to be the bigger focus here.

"The number one cameras Americans should be concerned about are those coming from China...those are programmed as computers that can sabotage any system to which they are connected...that includes our critical infrastructure," says Lucci.

We have known for years the Chinese have been harvesting all of our data and likely have access to all of our personal information at this point. But the end game has never been data. It is to break down the U.S. from within, and those cameras are their trojan horse.

"They are all sanctioned...they are lying about being American, Canadian, or Taiwanese cameras," Lucci says. "Cameras from the Chinese Communist Party are the number one surveillance threat to the American people."

But if there is good news, the Department of Justice seems to smell the stench already. Fox News Digital reported in late June that the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York launched a grand jury investigation that is examining possible money laundering, wire fraud and bank fraud violations by Roy-Singham and the network of nonprofits he funded.
