It always is, until it is proven a fact. In my country, people were being alarmist about the Corona travel restrictions, the vaccine, and the negative externalities of closing the healthcare system to pretty much everything. The alarmists were given a derogatory name, their concerns were labeled "speculation" and generally after 6 months, turned out to be true.
Gov: "There will be no app to restrict your movements if you aren't vaccinated."
Six months later: there's an app.
Gov: "The vaccine is fully tested and is completely safe"
Six months later: vaccine turns out to not have been completely tested, and the corporations behind it can't be sued.
Consider me heavily, heavily sceptical about CBDC's and the government's/central bank's desires to build a social credit system. I've seen too many quotes by August Karsten not to be.
