It could be identifying you as part of a group then excluding you from job/status/money/influence.

The future is subtle damage, not necessarily heads-on-pikes evil.

This subtlety is exactly what I fear the most. Detailed personality profiles are being created about you. You can't modify them and you can't argue about their accuracy. Potential employers, romantic partners, and friends will be able to read these and shun you.
