Social score is based on the score of your friends and family no matter what your own individual efforts are. Thats what makes it dangerous because it adds strong social pressure to isolate from and report others. The credit score system has no such feature.
- belorn 5y agoCan we really make the claim that a social score is safe as long as it exclude family and friends? What makes social score dangerous is the power imbalance when a position of authority is attempting to dictate social behavior by punishing deviation and dissent outside of democratic laws. A society that don't allow any deviation or dissent is an authoritarian society. A credit score system has nothing to do with social behavior unless they get combined. The dangers of a credit score system occurs when social behavior becomes proxies for creditworthiness, in which case the credit score system also becomes a social score system that hands out punishment based on deviation and dissent.
