Real-life Black Mirror': Chinese city trials smartphone app that will rate residents' behaviour – with bonuses for volunteering and penalties for running a red light

A city in China has sparked outrage after the authorities planned to score their citizens’ behaviour through a smartphone app that monitors people’s daily lives.
 
Officials in eastern Chinese city Suzhou introduced the rating system, loosely translated as the ‘Civility Code’, to encourage people to become the model citizens in the eye of the government, reported Chinese media.
 
Each resident starts with a score of 1,000, with rewards and plus-points for volunteering, minus for running a red light, according to the app.
 
The city’s new plan was widely criticised by Chinese social media users. Many called it ‘suffocating’ and ‘pointless’ while others compared it to the popular British TV series Black Mirror.

It comes as China has faced widespread doubts and criticism over its use of artificial intelligence to monitor its citizens during the pandemic.
 
Tens of millions of Chinese residents were ordered to use a smartphone app that evaluates their health condition and tracks their travel history during the outbreak.
 
Millions of video cameras blanket streets from major cities to small towns. Censors monitor activity on the internet and social media. State-owned telecom carriers can trace where mobile phone customers go.
 
Suzhou’s new scoring system is composed of a ‘travelling index’, a ‘volunteering index’, as well as other indicators, reported Global Times.
 
The travelling index is linked to road manners and one's traffic violation records, while the volunteer index is measured by a person’s involvement in volunteering work.
 
The system aims to generate a ‘personal portrait’ for each resident in a bid to promote good daily habits such as trash sorting, civilised dining manners, social courtesy and online behaviour, the authorities reportedly said in a statement.
