"So here is another conspiracy theory to add to the rapidly growing list on why
wind farms should not be built in Australia: China will apparently use cameras
mounted at wind farms to spy on Australian people, cows and crops, and this
should not be allowed, according to one group of opponents.
The claim was included in the latest newsletter to subscribers and posted on
the Facebook page of one anti-wind group.
It said the rollout of long range cameras, ostensibly mounted to identify and
capture the flight of eagles or brolgas to enable turbines to be switched off,
are being used for nefarious purposes, and it pointed to projects in Tasmania
and in Victoria, where cameras are also being used as fire spotters.
“Woolnorth Renewables, or essentially the Chinese Government, is planning to
install cameras on its wind farm under the pretence of watching the Brolgas and
Eagles,” the post said.
“The cameras will need to cover many kilometres to capture the flight path of
Brolgas and Eagles. (At least 5km – 10 km out to capture the Brolga).
“Most wind farms are owned by the Chinese, or will eventually be owned by the
Chinese.
“Does that mean the Chinese Government, or some other foreign government, will
be installing cameras over 70% of Victorian (sic) to watch us, record our faces
and our movements, or monitor when we sell our stock and sew our crops?”
“They must think us country folk are dumb or somth’n.”
Or something."
