Australia has introduced a social credit system requiring citizens to accumulate 100 points of identification from their digital ID to access the internet and use social media. This system, which removes online anonymity, grants police access to all social media accounts, including private messages. The initiative, initially proposed in 2021, has raised concerns about privacy and freedom among Australians, with debates on its benefits and risks ongoing. The plans were unveiled in 2021.
