Local governments and work units - grass-root level \nmanagers - were particularly active participants in the system. A Credit \nChina website that had been visited by 500 million people was publicly \nshaming \u201clao lai\u201d or deadbeats who don\u2019t pay their bills. But some \nprovinces are reported to have also taken to broadcasting photographs of\n those blacklisted on large screens in public places.Human Rights Watch \nis concerned that individuals who find themselves incorrectly listed \nhave experienced difficulty in getting their names removed. Human Rights\n Watch has highlighted the case of lawyer Li Xiaolin \u00a0who was stranded \n1900 kilometres from home, unable to catch a plane, after a court listed\n him for \u201cinsincere apology\u201d without his knowledge.<br/></p></blockquote></blockquote>"}
