The Social Credit System is a national reputation system being developed by the Chinese government. By 2020, it is intended to standardise the
assessment of citizens' and businesses' economic and social reputation, or 'Social Credit'. The system will be one unified system and there will be a single system-wide social credit score for each citizen and business. The system is considered as a form of mass surveillance which uses big data analysis technology. Critics will point to similar 'surveillance' systems already in operation in western countries.
Authoritarianism is a political system characterized by strong central power, often with limited political pluralism and a suppression of dissent
It's a system where authority is concentrated in the hands of a few, who may not be accountable to the people they govern. Authoritarianism can manifest in various ways, including through autocratic rule, oligarchic rule, or the rule of a single party or the military.
Surveillance is the monitoring of behavior, activities, or information for the purpose of influencing, managing or directing. This can include
observation from a distance by means of electronic equipment, such as closed-circuit television (CCTV), or interception of electronically transmitted information, such as Internet traffic. Surveillance is used by governments for intelligence gathering, prevention of crime, the protection of a process, person, group or object, or the investigation of crime. Surveillance can be viewed as a violation of privacy, and as such is often opposed by civil liberties activists.
China, officially the People's Republic of China (PRC) is a country in East Asia. It is the world's most populous country, with a population of around
1.4 billion in 2019. Covering approximately 9.6 million square kilometres, it is the world's third or fourth-largest country by area. Governed solely by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), the state exercises jurisdiction over 22 provinces, five autonomous regions, four direct-controlled municipalities (Beijing, Tianjin, Shanghai, and Chongqing), and the special administrative regions of Hong Kong and Macau. China is a unitary one-party socialist republic, and is one of the few existing nominally socialist states. Political dissidents and human rights groups have denounced and criticized the Chinese government for human rights abuses, including suppression of religious and ethnic minorities, censorship, mass surveillance, and their response to protests, notably in 1989.
