hey sorry for not reading this or replying to this yet, things have gotten wild very quickly in my life just recently, and this is something i definitely want to read. i appreciate the source

EDIT: update, ~5 years later:

  • falun gong is definitely a fascist cult, thank u to neku for bursting my bubble on that
  • unfortunately, the "falun gong organ harvesting" thing is probably real,
  • but it's a way way bigger issue w.r.t. targeting uyghurs,
  • And the machine learning research that tipped me off to this has definitely matured since then :\

What tipped me off was a ~2019 paper showing a system to efficiently categorize between Han and Uyghur people just by a low resolution image of their face. "What an odd thing to say", etc etc. I feel like things might have gotten worse since then!!

I've quit the machine learning research space but man
