Social Credit

Social Credit refers to a government system used, notably in China, to assess and score citizens' behavior based on various factors, including financial history, social interactions, and compliance with laws. The goal is to promote trustworthiness and social responsibility. A high score can lead to rewards like easier access to loans and travel, while a low score may result in penalties such as travel restrictions or reduced access to public services. This system raises important discussions about privacy, personal freedom, and the balance between security and individual rights.
