If Social Credit were merely a means to gauge financial and social trustworthiness, I would be inclined to say "meh, we already have that", but making social credit tied to behaviors that the government deems to be disloyalty against the party, in an opaque process hidden from citizens, crossed it into the third rail for me. We have surveillance, but you're not going to be denied employment to a non-government job or housing because of your political opinions that you post online. E: That being said, I fully expect such a system to be brought into being here in my lifetime.

Fojar38 posted:You're insane if you think that anything even close to this would be arriving in the US, or any Western country for that matter. In the US especially if the government tried something like this there would be hordes of people making GBS threads all over it and ignoring it completely as a matter of principle. I mean, we're all already monitored for everything else in our lives, and nobody seems to care, we embrace it. I don't find it hard to imagine our capitalist society welcoming the idea of turning everyone into a set of scores, and rewarding accordingly.
