DSC (Democratic Social Credit) is an advanced social credit system using futuristic technology. Individuals gain social credit points from doing socially good activities and lose social credit points from doing socially bad activities. E.g., individuals would gain social credit points from donating blood, giving to charity, paying taxes, volunteering etc. and loose points from jaywalking, breaking traffic laws, avoiding taxes or littering etc. The result of all these considerations is an aggregated "human score" out of 5 stars. Your human rating determines the prices you pay for goods, where your children can go to school, what areas you can buy houses, tax holidays you can acces etc

'Archangel' is a chip that is painlessly and safely implanted into babies' brains after birth. The technology allows a parent to: see the child’s location at all times, use their smartphone to see what the child is currently seeing and implement content restrictions on what the child can see (e.g., the audio would be dampened and the child would see disturbing content in real life as merely a blur). When the child’s stress levels go up, the parent will receive a notification and can alter any settings remotely. The chip will be permanently and irreversibly disabled once the child reaches 16
