Wow. This reminds me of Cory Doctorow's imagined whuffie social credit system [1], except in a terribly twisted way. I guess that's a logical extension of it though.
"Whuffie has replaced money, providing an esteem- and admiration-rewarding motivation for people to do useful and creative things. A person's Whuffie is a general measurement of his or her overall reputation and is gained (or lost) according to a person's favorable (or unfavorable) actions. Public opinion determines which actions are favorable or unfavorable."
