Beijing wants to blacklist unruly visitors

Tourism authorities in Beijing said they are considering creating a blacklist of unruly visitors in order to curb bad behavior, as the city was inundated with tourists for Tomb Sweeping Festival. The bad behavior includes climbing trees, damaging plants, fishing in park lakes, and selling things illegally within the city's parks. A blacklist would block loutish travelers from visiting the city's parks. Facial recognition software and other surveillance technology will be used to monitor guests and keep out those with a record of bad behavior.
