   - *The social credit system is used to punish citizens for bad behavior
   with numerous blacklists preventing them from traveling, getting loans or
   jobs, or staying in hotels, and even by limiting internet access.*

   credit system in 2020, which has gained comparisons to the show "Black
   Mirror."*
