"Damn that's interesting" Police in China checking phones for illegal apps, including VPNs. No warrant needed.

I wasn't sure if it was train tickets or covid passports. Given that everyone is masked up in the video, I suspect it was taken during zero covid and the police here were checking to make sure no one who had tested positive and/or wasn't vaccinated was traveling somewhere to risk spreading it. I could be wrong about that, but either way it certainly isn't "checking for illegal apps" like the title claimed.
