If you live on the wrong side of the digital tracks, you won't even see a credit offer from leading lending institutions, and you won't realize that loans are available to help you with your current personal or professional priorities.
From personal experience and rational consideration, I'd say credit offers are NOT made "to help you". It's like saying bait is to help a fish by getting it firmly prioritized on a hook.

- ctdonath 14y agoDon't confuse "censorship" with "freedom of association". And just because a few might abuse that freedom doesn't mean everyone should be denied the right thereto.
