Looks like OP fell into the "Great Reset" conspiracy theory rabbit hole. The article does not mention anything related to "social credit score" and replacing a hardware passport (which is already equipped with a chip) with a software version would not make a difference anyway.

There is no conspiracy when everything is public information. This is an agenda. Check the links from my comment, especially about Italian "experiment".

You can check Naomi Klein view on "the conspiracy". If you wish.

"The Great Reset is an attempt to create a plausible impression that the huge winners in this system are on the verge of voluntarily setting greed aside to get serious about solving the raging crises that are radically destabilizing our world."
