What did China do?
Something that will harm someone or something beneficial?
Let's see.
Last year (May) China banned people from buying plane or train tickets.
That's strange!

Why?
Because their social credits were low.
and it was not hundred times, but it was more than 22 million times were people were refused to buy it.
According to a report from China’s National Public Credit Information Center from last week, it stated that
Airplane tickets were refused to or blocked for people around 17.5 million while high speed trains for 5.5 million times from buying.
The reason for these was they were identified under unspecified behavioral times.
Chinese government also employs a public blacklist, wherein if found guilty in court will punishes them partly buy limiting their ability to buy a ticket for the commutes i.e. airplane and train(high speed).
Annoying behavior included as in one of the case where a person refused to get up from different person reserved seat.
Not only these, they have their policies which includes the decrements of ranking (social credit score) by not paying taxes at time, scamming people or scamming in jobs, fake advertisements and many.
All these data's are collected by the help of fingerprint and then updated in their score (account).
By 2020, China is aiming to file on every Chinese citizen that includes all the data collected on the basis of behavior according to the documents translated by government.
