>Isn't this just the "social credit" system that people worry about in China, except privatised

Indeed it is, but Americans have a weird tendency to love horrible things done to them by private companies.



Because for the most part, private companies who you have alienated yourself from have competitors, and don't enforce their displeasure with you at the end of a bayonet while holding shackles. State Level credit system is an actual dystopia.
