Social Credit Scores In Portland? (ufile.io)

Recently, I've found two videos that claim there's a wide spread real-life social credit score system being put into place in Portland Oregon. One of these videos (The direct link) is of a man making various claims about the scale and use of these alleged social credit systems, while the file download is a corroborating video showing the system in action. In the video, the system in question appears to be made by 'Blueline Transportation Services', an Portland based company that transports diesel, jet fuel, and asphalt. I would appreciate it if anyone here had any information that could help put this into perspective.

Thanks!

Random kids on TikTok aren't a reliable source. Also, facial recognition is not the same thing as a credit system. Also, America already has a credit system and it's not secret, it's called FICO. Oh and the facial recognition software is coming from Blue line technology, not blue line transportation lol.

You're serious?

Do you have a TL;DR for the videos? I don't want to download them, but on the face of it this sounds like nonsense or mental illness.
