As technology getting better and better, it becoming more and more difficult to hide information. Imagine smaller and smaller device that can record more and more information and transmit it faster and faster. Information wants to be free.

The difference with hong kong is the surveillance is one sided, goverment can surveil their citizen but the citizen can't surveil the goverment. The surveillance/transparency has to be on both side. Government can't just do w

What I mean by conversion including demolishing the office building and building apartment instead not just retrofit existing office building to be a living space.

Because they can't just convert some of the space in their campus to housing because of zoning.
