Original Note:
The NBC video from 2019 includes details on a Chinese social credit system known now to be inaccurate. Some elements of the system described in the video exist partially. Other claimed elements, like a scoring system, are nonexistent. See many sources, e.g.: https://www.scmp.com/magazines/post-magazine/long-reads/article/3205829/how-chinas-social-credit-system-actually-works-its-probably-not-how-you-think https://merics.org/en/comment/chinas-social-credit-score-untangling-myth-reality https://foreignpolicy.com/2018/11/16/chinas-orwellian-social-credit-score-isnt-real/ https://thediplomat.com/2021/03/chinas-social-credit-system-speculation-vs-reality/ https://www.wired.com/story/china-social-credit-score-system/
