Chinese 15-minute cities are open air prisons.
Residents are required to take a face scan to pass checkpoints to go from one zone to another zone.
If you are blacklisted by social credit system, you can be stopped at checkpoint.

Damn
Fuck that.
I met a chinese guy when I was hiking in El Salvador this summer and he spoke really good english so I asked him a ton of questions about china lockdown and social credit system and I was shocked how none of this stuff bothered him. He just felt like as long as he was “good” it didn’t matter.
I asked him how he’d feel if the next government didn’t think he was “good” anymore or didn’t like something that he can do freely now. He smiled and said, “I hope not”.
