The social credit score is mandatory, and what you watch on it is absolutely used to adjust your credit score.

So no, i don't have a direct source that says "you must use this app or your credit score goes down", i have a reasonable informed idea that it probably does, based on china's current treatment of it's citizens.

So basically you’re saying you have a hunch? What a bunch of nonsense.
