It'd actually be this tbh. Crackkkers love their apple devices and companies charge more if they detect the user is on an iPhone or Mac

With facial recognition couldn't you do fico check and adjust prices accordingly?

That would be insanely costly to do

Also credit scores don't correlate to income

Lots of high income people are in hella credit card debt and lots of low income people are very careful of their credit score because they need every little financial advantage they can get

My credit score is like 800 something and I have all of $500 to my name lmao

Impressive, I only paid with credit cards, never missed any payments for years and hovered low 700s the entire time until I was late on one payment and I dropped almost 100 points when I checked 3 months later lmao
