Olympians banned from taking laptops and phones into Beijing for fear of surveillance

Dutch athletes who travel to the Olympic Winter Games in China at the end of this month must leave their own telephones and laptops at home. This urgent advice from NOCNSF is part of a package of measures with which the sports umbrella organization anticipates Chinese surveillance during the Games. The staff is provided with clean equipment. Never before has the umbrella organization taken such far-reaching precautions, according to conversations with those involved.
