Social Credit Score

China has begun implementing a Social Credit Scoring System

IN BRIEF The dystopian state is closer than you think—China's new "social credit score" is every Orwellian paranoiac's worst nightmare come true. But the technology, like it or not, is well on its way to implementation. The only question is—how will it change our lives? BIG BROTHER STATE The Chinese government is taking a controversial step in security, with plans to implement a system that gives and collects financial, social, political, and legal credit ratings of citizens into a social credit score. The idea itself seems straight out of science fiction, but in a society like China’s, it’s already beginning to take shape. For a nation that has a more-or-less openly totalitarian approach to governance, a move to install a Big Brother social credit system shouldn’t be surprising. Proponents of the idea are already testing various aspects of the system — gathering digital records of citizens, specifically financial behavior. These will then be used to create a social credit score system, which will determine if a citizen can avail themselves of certain services based on his or her social credit rating.

What would your SSC be?? How would it compare to the rest of the OT?

I think with the growing "need" for social media, and the way it's used by many as way to fulfill a seemingly universal proclivity towards self-actualization it was only a matter of time before something like this happened..
