this is not a good thing IMHO... If you thought that the Orwellian nightmare was anywhere close to ending in the world I have news for you it is just beginning. Yahoo News Finance has broken a story that should make your blood turn cold and just shows how far these control freaks in the world are. It appears that the powers that be are wanting to use your internet browsing history to determine whether or not you get approved for a loan. The International Monetary Fund (IMF) argues that this may help borrowers who would normally be denied by financial institutions due to poor credit. Others see this as the next step for “big brother” to infringe further upon their liberties and that is 100% the truth. Just take a look at what is happening in Australia with the insane tracking and there is even word spreading that Canada is looking to adopt the Chinese social scoring system in their country. Things are going to get so much worse unless we stand between them and these plans and say NO! Check it out here: much more info on the site and worth checking out... Your Credit Score May Soon be Determined by Your Browsing History – 3%
If you want a loan you might be forced to reveal your browsing history, the same as you are forced to reveal your debts, assets, income and tax returns.
Chinese social credit score is just starting in Canada and they are setting up the infrastructure in America. It worked so well in China they are going to do it world wide. Who's ready to starve!!!
Yep been using Nord (yes they even support Linux) since the beginning of the year. It's cheap about $4 a month. Also works with Android and iPhone. There are others. I think it's great to make it appear as though you're in Dallas or LA when you're in Albuquerque.
The only way to win is to not play. You might cover your tracks with a vpn, but how does that categorize you insurance-wise? (Definitely not saying that it’s a bad idea to use one)
I sure as hell don't want our country turning into that type of system,, but no one is going to ask my opinion. OBedumb wants the IRS to have access to our bank accounts for tracking. I did read a while back , that China has this facial recognition in public , and jaywalking or crossing a street outside of the designated areas ,, will bring down your credit score . I don't want to see this type of system,,, but I believe it's coming ,, and there ain't a damned thing we're going to be able to do about it.
I found out that my auto insurance is tied to your credit score. My agent ran a credit check and saved me some money. When you buy a car they ding your credit which lowers your score and the insurance ups your rates so it is good to have them run after your score is at its normal place.
Last I checked,, mine is non existent. They said it wasn't good , but it wasn't bad. I haven't used credit in so long ,, I didn't have any. Maybe this is why my car insurance seems to be going up. I'll have to check on that.
Well then, that's going to be a fun conversation for me and an uncomfortable one for whoever is reviewing my browser history.. I look forward to it
