As of November 2019, in addition to dishonest and fraudulent financial behavior, other behavior that some cities have officially listed as negative factors of credit ratings includes playing loud music or eating in rapid transits,[31] violating traffic rules such as jaywalking and red-light violations,[32][33] making reservations at restaurants or hotels but not showing up,[34] failing to correctly sort personal waste,[35][36][37] fraudulently using other people's public transportation ID cards,[38] etc; on the other hand, behavior listed as positive factors of credit ratings includes donating blood, donating to charity, volunteering for community services, and so on.[39][40][41]
this just sounds like a good thing though???? like, the world would definitely be a better place if these things happened.
sure beats the magic numbers they have the united states that they call a "credit score" which instead of being based on doing good things is based on having money, i.e., doing bad things.
Note also that literally all of those negative things can be held against you right here in the U.S. of A. Most of those will get you a ticket or a more serious criminal charge, both of which cost money and hassle to deal with and can impact your access to education, housing, and employment. Even the most mundane stuff -- making reservations and not showing up -- can lead to a private company charging you something or reducing your ability to do stuff in the future. Independent of whether it's a good idea to police these things, the conversation starts at "China is doing stuff the U.S. does," not "China is doing this horrible Black Mirror shit unheard of in the land of the free."
Quite possibly the biggest difference here is that in the U.S. you can't improve your credit score by donating blood or volunteering at a food bank.
