Big Tech Creating China Like Social Credit System In USA Says Former Facebook Analyst
February 18, 2022
According to Kara Frederick, a former Facebook intel analyst and a research associate at the conservative Heritage Foundation, Big Tech corporations seem to be doing the government’s bidding in creating a China like Social Credit System in US, and Americans must notice this and act quickly.
Frederick recently published a Heritage Foundation article titled "Combating Big Tech's Totalitarianism: A Road Map," wherein he explains how Big Tech has used its influence to restrict Americans. The research suggests a number of steps that Americans might do to combat the crisis.
"It's that integration of the government and big tech companies to police speech that I think is troubling and very evocative of the coming totalitarianism," Frederick said on EpochTV's "American Thought Leaders" program. She calls it a "symbiosis between the government and tech companies."
She listed a few cases, including earlier this month, where White House press secretary Jen Psaki pushed Spotify and other large tech companies to take additional steps to combat what the Biden government referred to as "COVID-19 misinformation" at a media briefing.
Frederick pointed out that this isn't the first occasion Psaki has advised huge tech corporations how to go about it. At a press conference in July 2021, Psaki and Surgeon General Vivek Murthy asked social media companies to battle what the Biden administration referred to as "health misinformation." Psaki pointed out 12 individuals at the period for "producing 65 percent of anti-vaccine misinformation on social media platforms," according to her.
"All of [the 12 people] remain active on Facebook, despite some even being banned on other platforms, including Facebook—ones that Facebook owns," Psaki said at the time. A day later, Psaki said, "You shouldn't be banned from one platform and not others … for providing misinformation out there." All of the individuals and profiles were removed from the Facebook platform inside a month, according to Frederick.
President Joe Biden made a "special appeal" to social media companies and the mainstream press in January to "deal with misinformation and disinformation," and Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas released a terrorism advisory in early February, Frederick noted, not only in the setting of so-called COVID-19 misinformation, but also for the context of election credibility and election safety.
"This is becoming pervasive and big tech companies are the willing agents for the government to have really a heavy hand on the American people," Frederick said. "So absolutely, this is a coming totalitarianism, these practices are, frankly, mirroring that of what China does in the social credit system," she continued. "You have to remember that [it] started with private companies as well and specific provinces in the financial sector.
"So I think it's extremely important for Americans to get their guards up and recognize what’s happening as it's happening today."
Quashing Dissenting Views
Frederick discusses how internet companies have converted instruments that were designed to battle national safety concerns to now suppress alternative opinions, or what the US administration refers to as "misinformation," "disinformation," and "mal-information."
"I believe that there are genuine problems on these platforms, right? Human trafficking, advertisements for drug cartels … child sexual abuse, material, child exploitation and pornography, and real foreign Islamic terrorist content. Those are real issues, not to mention state-linked influence operations, where you have bots that are farmed out to patriotic citizens by the CCP, the Chinese Communist Party, to spew bile all over the internet or cheerlead for the CCP. … So it's very important that we do have people within these companies working on that."
