also bar users under the age of 18 from accessing the internet from 10pm to 6am.

Meanwhile, a tiered system will mean those under the age of eight will be permitted a maximum of 40 minutes of usage a day, with up to two hours permitted for 16 and 17-year-olds.

Children aged between eight to 16 will have their time limit capped at one hour. ‘Teenager mode’

The proposed reforms are open to public feedback as part of a consultation process scheduled to run until Sept 2.

    How it will work is thdt if you don’t use it, your social credit score will be affected or your kid’s teacher/class monitor will include it in their spy reports. This will prevent you from entering your preferred university or from joining the party later in life

      That last sentence is the only true one AFAIK. Different reasons though, like dumbed down kids.

        No, it’s related to teacher’s reporting on students. In China, you do have a permanent record and your schoolteacher is the first person who’s adding to it. You have a class monitor, who is chosen by a teacher or by class referendum, (I can’t remember which), and his/her job is communication between classmates and teachers. Secondary function is reporting on classmates’ personal lives. This continues from elementary school thru university.
