And by 2020, this score will be a mandatory part of every Chinese citizen’s life.[/QUOTE] [QUOTE] If you post a negative political comment or political thoughts without permission, your score goes down. Mention a particularly sensitive issue (e.g. Tienanmen Square massacre) and expect your score to be negatively impacted even further. If that seems extreme, well, it gets worse. You see, because the data is being tracked through social networks the government knows who all your friends are. If any of your friends post political comments, their score goes down but so does yours because you are their friend. By linking the two it is clear the government wants everyone to keep their friends from stepping out of line.[/QUOTE]
It's like...taking all the NSA, Google, Facebook "spying" data and stuff and actually using it publicly.
And once they do, their international credit scores will be all 0, because the banks are then (probably already) making up the financial scores It always amazes me that the financial industry is run by completely made up crap to begin with, and then everybody acts surprised when someone lies and everything crumbles, china just doesn't even care about being honest about their financial data to the point that they look amazing on paper, but in practice,income taxes are low, revenue is supposedly high, and debt is non existent, yet they can also afford to toss about billions on useless projects like cities in the middle of nowhere with nobody in them [editline]6th October 2015[/editline] [QUOTE=AntonioR;48845274]It's like...taking all the NSA, Google, Facebook "spying" data and stuff and actually using it publicly.[/QUOTE] Well in China the great firewall is sort of exactly like the NSA, Google, and Facebook rolled into one
So, looks like the only way to not get fucked is to keep your mouth shut and/or completely disconnect yourself from your friends online? [editline]p[/editline] also looks like it scores based on the food you buy. What the flying fuck is this shit?
I don't know what to say its so horrible Its basically that person rating app scare a few days back but government sponsored, some real 1984 shit.
I wonder if their system can detect if you're saying things supporting the chinese government ironically?
