Italy will become the first European nation to implement a social credit system - where citizens will be rewarded for their "Good behavior".
Citizens who display good behavior such as correctly recycling or using public transportation will be rewarded.
The Bologna municipality is deploying a "Smart Citizen Wallet" which will be the primary method for citizens to collect digital coins in exchange for behavioral changes.
Given the increasing interest by the European Union, some fear it is only a matter of time before more regions and nations will implement similar methods to solve "Social issues".
European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen has also expressed keenness over introducing 'EU ID', which would integrate national IDs with internet sign-ups.
In 2021, von der Leyen said: "Every time an App or website asks us to create a new digital identity, or to easily log via a big platform, we have no idea what happens with our data. That is why the Commission will propose a secure European e-identity. One that we trust and that any citizen can use anywhere in Europe to do anything from paying taxes to renting bicycles."
Given the amount of data such a platform could log on every EU citizen, a looming privacy nightmare seems inevitable.
It's becoming increasingly difficult to discern fact from fiction, and unfortunately the media has a strong bias. They spin stories to make conservatives look bad and will go to great lengths to avoid reporting on the good that comes from conservative policies. There are a few shining lights in the media landscape-brave conservative outlets that report the truth and offer a different perspective. We must support conservative outlets like this one and ensure that our voices are heard.
