The reports on China planning to monitor food business with live cameras follow controversial accounts of citizens in Shenzhen, China, who have reportedly been forced to sleep on the streets after their QR codes prevented entry to their apartments, as reported on Tuesday, September 6.
The news of China’s citizens forced to sleep on the streets after their QR codes locked them out of their homes was shared on Twitter:
“CHINA – Numerous reports coming through of citizens having to sleep on the streets in Shenzhen because they missed PCR tests and QR codes showing red, prevented them from entering their apartment.”

One user commented on the possibility that the video showing citizens locked out of their homes due to their QR code could be false : “This could be staged @BernieSpofforth.. so hard to trust media, but if true, absolutely apalling! 💙”
To which another replied: “Let’s check? @songpinganq Can you confirm this ?”
