I personally really enjoy the convenience and speed of digital money (Apple Wallet, Apple Pay, PayPal, sometimes Zelle). I rarely use cash any more. If I get $300 from the ATM machine, it now lasts me a couple months.
But the ease that it allows the bastards to implement social credit scores scares the hell out of me.
I just read your post and I can’t help wondering why you, as an intelligent person, didn’t figure this out.
We are so caught up in the new and amazing toys we have to play with, it sometimes clouds our minds to the long term results that these geniuses are “pushing” us into using and accepting and loving.
Maybe those people have bad intentions.
