Yep. The CCP’s social credit system was always going to be the end game of surveillance capitalism. It will be spearheaded by conservatives because they’re the most religious, authoritarian, and have an innate desire to restrict social progress and enforce their views on everyone else.

The best part is they’ll claim it’s completely different and represents Freedom™️ because it’ll be established by capitalism… Even though it’s functionally identical, the CCP are more capitalist than communist, and western conservatives jizz their pants at the level of power and control the CCP have over the Chinese people.
