Think about the synergy that this could unlock, Alphabet comes with the citizen tracking service (not malicious, just for ads, obviously) and plug it to their citizen scoring service.

Further research could be done on integrating this new dataset with Project Maven, think about the opportunities of engaging only with end users with score below a threshold.

Did I see something like this on Black Mirror?

You did see something like this on Black Mirror, specifically because Black Mirror wrote the episode based on the Chinese social credit system.
