What should scare you is it's becoming apparent procedures are being put in place so that when the 'computer says no' the person affected isn't given the information they need to fix the problem they have.

Banking computer closed your account. Why? We can't tell you why.

Google or Apple rejected your app from their app store. Why, won't tell you why.

Me trying to get my prescription refilled at Walgreens. Walgreens computer shows they never got it from the doctor. Doctor sent it 5 times. Turned out the computer was marking it invalid each time. Pharmacist isn't allowed to tell neither me or my doctor why.

They will not tell you not out of malice, but because they don't know. It's literally a black box, and we don't understand whys.

And it doesn't take a deep CNN to become a black box - any sufficient complex algorithm will do. I doubt anybody in the world understands all the details of how the latest CPU actually works, for example.
