Respectfully, that is apples to oranges. You are unable to function as a regular person in China with bad social credit. Here you can’t get loans and sometimes your employer sees.
In my state all the lenders came to the legislature several years back and make a big push to try and come up with a new type of credit score that was primarily based on driving history. Apparently, driving history is like a way more accurate predictor of your credit worthiness than your financial history. So I guess my point is that they will scrape data anyway then can get it and use it to judge how much you have to pay to access money.
Comparing the American president to a cartoon character doesn’t stop you from being able to fly. You have no idea how deep China’s social credit system goes if you think it’s at all comparable to just getting higher interest rates.
Credit is a fucking scam to begin with. It’s insane what companies like Equifax have gotten away with.
It’s a far less bad scam than the previous version of be a white guy that’s friends with the local bank.
Wholeheartedly agree. And then we go around panicking about the authoritarian social credit shit China has. Mfer we’ve have social credit for decades
