Prove it!

Provide actual evidence that 1 million+ people are actually detained. Exactly how big of a government building do you need to house that many people. Surely, you can see this giant building from Google Maps. So prove it.

And also, there are thousands of people in Yemen that are getting killed now, by the Saudis, and using American weapons from Lockheed, Raytheon, and Boeing. But mysteriously, there isn’t a peep about this in western media.

Will the tech community also stand up for these poor Yemen people?

I wouldn't be surprised if it was mostly underground to minimize the visual footprint. They aren't stupid, they know that recon satellites keeps an eye on everything.
Bit rich to go, prove it, but but also what about a similar class which I'm not going out of my way to prove. The American technology angle here is semi-irrelevant, the real problem with Saudi is that the US allied with them in the first place, despite being one of the more regressive nations in the region. They also then went and sanctioned Iran which happens to also be more progressive. I guess the Saudis had more oil.
