content: A misuse of electronics to create Brave New World and Nineteen Eighty Four by an evil regime...http://www.abc.net.au/news/2018-09-18/china-social-credit-a-model-citizen-in-a-digital-dictatorship/10200278andhttp://www.abc.net.au/foreign/leave-no-dark-corner/10264302. Not surprisingly, the ubiquitous Australian ABC has been blocked in China. The last thing they want is for the masses to learn the truth.Be afraid. Be very afraid.What the hell are we creating? How do we, as a human race, or more specifically as electronics and IT/programming community, stop 1984 in its tracks?

content: Just walk on people, nothing new to see.This is and was happening in all communist and dictator countries like Russia and East Germany.Watch "Das Leben der Anderen" or "The lives of others". And what about the NSA program to monitor all global phonecalls, if you call some-one and name a few wrong keywords your conversation is recorded and flagged.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Lives_of_Others

content: Quote from: Kjelt on September 18, 2018, 02:19:21 pmThe difference is that back then only a limited amount of people could be tracked, despite comparatively huge intelligence agencies. You needed a lot of manpower for every single subject. Now information is raked in and everyone gets stuck in the nets. Current intelligence agencies possess more information about each of us than any 80s dictatorship could ever dream of. The Stasi had nothing on the NSA.

content: Quote from: VK3DRB on September 18, 2018, 01:08:57 pmIn the same way that Canute could not stop the tide, no one can stop the desire of those in power to stay in power.Scientific research shows that humans have evolved in similar ways to domesticated animals, and that most people are happy to follow leaders. That makes a lot of sense if you think about it, and maybe why homo sapiens are so efficient at exterminating other species.I'm sorry to say we are the product of the ruthless rules of evolution. Survive or die.

content: I like how you brought up cross dressing as a flaw. Perhaps we can accuse hitler of being gay as well?I did not know canada produced that 'southern' grade individual. I am curious why you don't see the potential homosexuality and the black skin canceling each other out to your benefit. It's like, criminal misuse of the constitution, not bad enough, lets throw in sexual identity. I think you are trying too hard to appeal to radical minorities.Regardless about JEH, what did you guys think will happen when you finance a commie government instead of attempting to destabilize and destroy it? They use it for spying and internal control. The only reason it was not like this before is because they were poor. Their trying to get bigger, its the soviet union 3.0. Their building foreign bases too.. soon they will be funding socialist uprisings in areas of interest just like Russia.

content: There is an episode of Black Mirror where everyone is rated. I am sure the series would be censored in China for that very episode alone.Maybe an option to make them remove the cameras is start by confiscating all the properties, equities and foreign banks accounts that the Chinese political hypocrites and their families have abroad. Using technology, it should be easy to do. Currency is disappearing and property titles are electronic, so most "wealth" is just a number stored on a computer.

content: in the modern west.we have credit ratings, we have police clearances for legal ratings, we have medical records for health ratings.we have purchase history across all domains via the linkage of credit cards and online data.their isnt an official, public, citizens rating but its trivial to create adhoc ones with a few queries.
