Big data meets Big Brother as China moves to rate its citizens.

Imagine a world where many of your daily activities were constantly monitored and evaluated: what you buy at the shops and online; where you are at any given time; who your friends are and how you interact with them; how many hours you spend watching content or playing video games; and what bills and taxes you pay (or not).

In a world in which posting updates is common, purposeful, and performative, sharing often allows teens to control a social situation more than simply opting out.
Sitting in an afterschool program in Los Angeles, I casually asked a teen participant why she shared so many embarrassing photos of herself on her profile. SOYEZ NET SUR LE NET | ACCUEIL.
