Social Credit: China's Digital Dystopia In The Making

Leave No Dark Corner: In China, advances in technology are making surveillance techniques more and more sophisticated. Now, a citizen’s most trivial actions - or even, it seems, their ethnicity - can affect their freedom.

“If people keep their promises they can go anywhere in the world, and if people break their promises they won’t be able to move an inch”, says Cong Jie of credit system Alipay. Facial recognition, security cameras and mobile apps are permitting monitoring of citizens’ every move, using their actions to calculate a ‘score’ based on their perceived merits. Criminal, academic and medical records, even what you buy at the supermarket, are all taken into account. Purchasing alcohol reduces your score, whilst buying nappies increases it. Fan Dandan believes it’s the natural progression of the Party’s policies. “I think it’s always been there”, she says. “Now it’s just in a more efficient format.” Yet injustices appear prevalent. Investigative journalist Liu Hu has found himself labelled ‘dishonest’ and his rights restricted for no apparent legitimate reason. It began after he exposed a corrupt politician. “There are a lot of people who are on the blacklist wrongly”, he says, “but they can’t get off it". Reports of racial profiling and unfounded detainment abound, raising serious questions about the motivations behind this new age of totalitarianism.

@Uncookedcat 069I really hope you are right but I think we have to demand it does not otherwise (little by little we will find ourselves there). For us here in the U.S. they will use emergencies as excuses to get us there sooner (911 and Covid). They are real emergencies but the rights (if 911 can be a guide) will never be given back. Right now they are talking about a "Vaccine Passport" even to travel internally in the country. So whereever you go (if you have the vaccine and are allowed to travel and enter public places) you will be tracked digitally all the time. Not to mention, if for some reason there is a glitch in the system you can be instantly denied (as some accidentally found themselves on the Do Not Fly list right after 911). I think this lady makes some good points that vaccine passports would very easly be a backbone to introducing a Western version of a social credit score kzbin.info/www/bejne/pojSdZV9g9lnrck www.zdnet.com/article/your-browser-history-could-soon-be-a-part-of-your-credit-score/ www.privateinternetaccess.com/blog/imf-suggests-that-your-credit-score-could-be-based-on-your-internet-history/

Don't kid yourself, CN is in total control! We better start waking people up or it's coming to a city near you. Social credit scores? What a bunch of garbage! Telling you where you can/can't go, what not to say or question, buying habits & social activities analyzed & scored.These people aren't God...It's WE THE PEOPLE that allow government to function as written in the Constitution. We need gov for certain things in life, but not a huge gov watching & controlling your entire life. To be clear, I'm NOT against gov, just out of control gov that continues to grow & impede on OUR lives, despite what their constituents say. No f-ing thanks! You can't even freely express yourself on this platform, along with others without worrying about being banned or put on some 'BS list'. Free speech is being ripped away faster & faster. With the excuse of there 'private companies'. NONSENSE!They're called monopolies that the gov allows, since they feed them any data they want on XYZ person or group, with no questions asked. Only the gov & certain gov contractors can can see these lists & are bound by secrecy. You'll probably never find out why & almost never get taken off. It's already started here. All these cameras need to go.They do more harm then good. 1 'traffic' camera per intersection, that's enough. Boy, weren't the 70's,-90's so much better? Leave people ALONE & go after actual criminals. Don't surveil the entire country just because the technology is available. Life, Liberty, & the Pursuit of Happiness is what American want & demand.

We’ve already been going in this direction. People that have government jobs making adequate pay to buy a house are even having trouble getting financing because of a lower credit score. People are denied shelter in renting due to a lower credit score but yet do not have any record of evictions on their credit report. Everything has already been in the direction of a highly credit driven society for a long time now which has led to more & more of where they’re at now.

[@JB-pd3ir]

@@revrotunda3206 Very true!

[@revrotunda3206]

And who monitors these credit weasels-they seem to exist in their own shell of control & power & why aren’t more talking about this. Because they don’t want us to question some kind of an authority that we don’t even know their full & complete history & how it really started. One article I read about this dances around the question by just saying credit histories were formed from small organizations from some time in the 1800’s. There was some other interesting info, however that reportedly said The Society of the Guardians for the Trade Against Swindlers & Sharpers that was founded in London in 1776 was the first known recorded group that shared credit info of consumers yet contradictory to what the article said earlier in that these organizations were formed in the 1800’s but perhaps they are referring to the USA only. It’s not clear just as it isn’t clear just who these credit weasels are & if indeed they do have some type of secret overseer. And remember the old phrase The Welcome Wagon? There was literally a horse drawn wagon (due to the early time frame) that would secretly collect information on new neighbors for the credit bureaus-again what credit bureaus & when & how were they formed. Another example of how lies & deceit have always plagued us but people for the most part just went along with the program. But on the other hand, what could people really do about it. They know this & are still able to get away with whatever they can today. This credit bureau thing is full of secrets they don’t want us to know. Granted there has to be guidelines as to who has the capacity to borrow & pay back, but they have abused their power with much unfairness as in many other things. And again, just who are these people & who puts them in their demonstrative authoritarian place? They think just because the so-called Fair Credit Act was put into place in 1971, that fixes everything so that’s all we need to know. Credit was generously distributed back in the day & not scrutinized down to the bone & beyond to the point of arbitrary decisions. I wish I could remember when the scores & credit reports started (for our public knowledge & workings as they probably always compiled our info) but I never had a problem getting a gas card, Sears revolving & even a Discover Card & I did not make a massive amount of money. Now doing all of your business is like pulling teeth unless you are favored in the social credit score arena.

Cloth masks do practically nothing to prevent transmission of aerosols. Yet whats the most popular? Cloth. A disposable mask is exponentially more effective, and EVEN THOSE MASKS ARE ONLY ABOUT 32% EFFECTIVE *WHEN THEY'RE WORN PROPERLY. People rarely use them properly. I say this to say, the majority of people don't actually know anything about anything yet they pretend like they're informed because they're "taking precautions" and CNN/CBC said so. So these same people, people like you, will not see it as a social credit score, you will instead see it as "taking precautions".

[@HyraxGames]

Right? ;) i am so happy we live in a private society that dosen't monitor our phones and computers

[@amandajones4549]

You think? Sorry you’re totally wrong. The US and the government are corporations. Same as most other countries. US is run by the British Monarchy. Add to the fact that China, US and UK are in partnership with each other. Have you consented to be governed? If you haven’t elected someone you’ve not given consent.

@@amandajones4549 Hey I originally posted this as a joke, not entirely sure what point you are trying to make but capitalism is objectively bad and China is not partnered with the US and UK (Israel, Colombia, and Philippines are though)

So messed up if u end up with a bad credit score and say end up poor u can't even leave the country to broaden your horizons. Your stuck with no way out. Sounds to me like a way to make more criminals lower someone's score enough and u control them.. they will have no credibility after all.

[@brettblack7049]

@@dattape2828 that's pretty normal. Many counties cop cars have the ability to read a plate and it pulls up all the insurance info and the owned/insureds info. Buddy got pulled over in Michigan and the cop walked up and said are you ..., yes I am, cop says, I see your insurance is expired, he never handed him a thing. Those ipasses for toll roads and such have all your info within the data base as well. When you look at what your phone is capable of its incredible too.

This is what people dont understand. Corruption is routed in legislation and regulation. The more they regulate the more power your government has, and who lobbies your government?
