The social score in China is even worse than in Black Mirror, it defines everything you can access from bank, education, job, health, transport , social relationships, etc.
It is not a legal score, it is a social score (both in theory and in practice)
I completely agree that it is stupid to send non-dangerous people to jail, but we should punish them with fines and possibly specific job restrictions decided on a per-case basis by a tribunal if there is a clear danger, but not by restricting their every aspect of their private, public, social and professional life.
- BurningFrog 8y agoFines will give you less money, which will restrict every aspect of your private, public, social and professional life.

- chillacy 8y agoIt seems like a systemization of how a small society might shun an outcast. If you’re a rude asshole at school or work, people might intentionally make your life harder by refusing to do things for you, at a minimum they won’t be trusting you with any favors. In the extreme they won’t talk to you. The government can’t tweak at such a fine level but wherever it can, that’s what the system feels like from my very far and biased point of view.
