Your Phone Already Has Social Credit. We Just Lie About It.
Except all the examples given aren't run by the government.
Not even remotely the same thing as social credit in China which is objectively evil.
Oppression is fine when a private company does it then?
Both can be wrong at the same time but one—where the government is constantly tracking and judging their citizens—is much worse. What's even worse than that is if said government isn't a (real) democracy.
The longer a single leader is in power, the more problematic this style of surveillance becomes. Because it can be used against their political enemies at will, crushing dissent before it has a chance to take root.
It's the ultimate wall to (civil) progress and one of the biggest amplifiers of injustice that exists.
Maybe take a step back from the computer. You have to be in a tilted headspace to respond like this.
Both are evil.
