It's quite easy to get rid of all that crap: just come living in the EU
Sadly, no. Germany for example has the SCHUFA which is basically the equivalent of the Chinese social score nowadays
It is not. Saying so, reduces the intrusiveness and carelessness of the american system and absolute insanity of the chinese scoring system.
The SCHUFA is a problematic institution for sure, but saying it's equivalent to the chinese scoring system just shows that you don't know what you are talking about.
doesnt the UK still have the big Credit Agencies and do the same thing?
