(Paul Joseph Watson) Social credit tyranny accelerates.
Related Where Eyes Wide Shut Meets Social Credit Scores
by Paul Joseph Watson, October 8th, 2019
Chinese citizens will be forced to pass a facial recognition test to use the Internet in the latest expansion of the country’s draconian social credit score system.
“At present, a Chinese citizen will need to show his or her ID card while applying for a landline or the internet,” reports the Daily Mail. “The facial-recognition test is set to verify that the ID card belongs to the applicant.”
Under its social credit score system, China punishes people who criticize the government, as well as numerous other behaviors, including;
– Bad driving.
– Smoking on trains.
– Buying too many video games.
– Buying too much junk food.
– Buying too much alcohol.
– Calling a friend who has a low credit score .
– Having a friend online who has a low credit score.
– Posting “fake news” online.
– Visiting unauthorized websites.
– Walking your dog without a leash.
– Letting your dog bark too much.
Back in August, the Communist state bragged about how it had prevented 2.5 million “discredited entities” from purchasing plane tickets and 90,000 people from buying high speed train tickets in the month of July alone.
People in the west are already being banned by entire websites and services due to their opinions.
Given that Silicon Valley has aided China in helping develop its social credit system, how long before they’re banned from using the Internet altogether?

Domestic spying or state-sponsored surveillance is an affront to decency and a truly lawful society that honors the rights of its citizens. The preceding information reveals the breach of trust of corporations that collect personal information without our permission. By extension, the government is complicit and culpable because the right to exist and operate was conveyed to a corporation via the government. This information is helpful to dispel the false reality of the Deep State so as to activate the individual’s freedom-seeking urge.

Please exercise some integrity by properly differentiating between the so-called Chinese system of “Social Credit” and historic Douglas Social Credit which has absolutely nothing in common with the Chinese system. Genuine Social Credit has a policy of restoring independence to the individual through genuine economic democracy wherein financial debt is replaced by consumer buying power which is adequate to clear the markets–in lieu of the credit currently appropriated by the banks and issued as debt–and where economic policy is determined by consumers voting with their income in the context of a free society. Chinese “Social Credit” is, conversely, a system of universal State surveillance of citizens’ behaviour and the issue of rewards and punishment by the all-powerful State. C. H. Douglas, founder of authentic Social Credit, affirmed that the State exists to serve the individual and that the individual does not exist to serve the State. This is the difference between genuine freedom and tyranny. http://www.socred.org
Have you deleted my previous comment? If so, you are clearly hypocrites. You refer to the Chinese system of surveillance, rewards and punishments as “Social Credit” when it is virtually the exact opposite of the ideas advanced by the late C. H. Douglas. You appear to be quite comfortable in slandering and/or misrepresenting an idea by appropriating its legitimate name and representing it as what it palpably is not. Not very impressive!
No deleted comment. Just busy.
