Black mirror in Real life

      In the first article Black mirror it was telling us how in the show it went off of test scores and how good moves can up your score and how bad moves can kill your score. This is a similar thing that is actually happening in China right now. Lazarus Liu moved back home to China after studying abroad in the United Kingdom and when moving back home he stated that "something had changed" which he noticed very quickly. He noticed that everywhere he and his family went that they paid through a app through their cell phone called Alipay and Wechat pay. Once he downloaded the app he found his daily life being used through the app just like the black mirror episode. Everything he paid for went through the app, even when him and his wife went on vacations. He also had to put in life information also like the episode of black mirror. Even when he wasn't using the Alipay app he was still using the app because that's even where he stored the extra money he had leftover. This app eventually developed a credit score. The higher the credit score was the better just like the black mirror episode, the closer you got to 5 the better. In 2014 social credit came which judged people off their social lives. The site eventually got hacked and the score of 145 million people were leaked. The show and real life example were very identical.
