Maybe I'm wrong, but I just don't feel reducing the human condition to algorithmically-compliant numbers is in keeping with a "normal human" existence. It's like creating a new "master" to serve.
Also, the utility of making a life about a 'score' implies a radical antagonistic reaction to the inevitable reality of individuality and personal sovereignty.
Sure they may be able to point to 'benefits for all' - as long as it is defined by 'someone else' via computer processing. I just don't want to 'serve' a machine... because I'm not one... so while we can never be individually equal... but me and everyone else with my same score are now "interchangeable" within all social score system operations. Somehow I feel that diminishes me.
Maybe I'm wrong... but in the case of algorithmic compliance, I prefer to be ungovernable.
