China's social credit system is explicitly about being able to use surveillance technologies for social control. I suspect these approaches will only grow and mature in authoritarian states. In nominally free states like the US, this tech will also seep into society via private but essential industries like credit scores, access to rentals, etc., and then eventually by the government itself for things like passports, access to government aid, etc. This tech is just too tempting not to be used by the already powerful to become more powerful. |
