China Social Credit App, Unictown and Insurance Tracking
A Beijing startup, in collaboration with the Communist Youth League of China, developed a social credit app called Unictown targeting 70 million young people. The app scores users on criteria such as volunteer work and consumption history, offering rewards like job interview priority for high scores. Similar tracking behavior is observed in the U.S. through car insurance apps that monitor driving habits via smartphone accelerometers.
