Following on from this interview concerning global technocratic dictatorships, impending digital caste systems and enforced cybernetic behavioural control grids thought there was a really relevant vid below concerning the existing state of affairs in China.

• What’s Your Social Credit Score?
Don't know how folks feel about the forcefully imposed 'purification' of human society but looks like warnings about being enslaved into a digital panopticon (and the weaponization of data) don't sound as outlandish as they did a few years ago.
Can also see this model being insanely attractive to certain corporatocracy mindsets as not only does it allow for the extinction of privacy but also ensures punishment for those who do not mindlessly conform, unquestiningly obey or engage in critical thinking in any way, shape or form.
