In the first season of The Orville an episode aired called majority rules. In the episode its revealed that the countries justice system is based upon a perverse form of Facebook. Every citizen is required to wear an electronic badge with a green arrow for up votes and a red arrow for down votes. If a person commits an offense which offends the populace at large the individual must go on an apology tour. If that fails the person can be reset. They're given a lobotomy.
The Chinese government seems on track to follow The Orville's example. Creating an entire socially engineered society based upon the ideals of the Chinese Communist party.

China blocked 23 million “discredited” travellers from buying plane or train tickets last year as part of the country’s controversial “social credit” system aimed at improving the behaviour of citizens.
According to the National Public Credit Information Centre’s 2018 report, 17.5 million people were banned from buying flights and 5.5 million barred from purchasing high-speed train tickets because of social credit offences. The report released last week said: “Once discredited, limited everywhere”.
The social credit system aims to incentivise “trustworthy” behaviour through penalties as well as rewards. According to a government document about the system dating from 2014, the aim is to “allow the trustworthy to roam everywhere under heaven while making it hard for the discredited to take a single step.”
