Technology is increasingly removing our ability to make mistakes and move on with our lives. That is a hellish future.
This.
And it's actually occurring today because the internet doesn't forget. This has never happened before in human history - sure people can write stuff down to preserve it, but they retain the ability to self-edit, hence why history belongs to the victors.
But now, all your online activities are recorded pretty much permanently for everyone to see (sorry, privacy policies or settings just encourage people to spill the beans). People have lost jobs over stuff they posted on Facebook, by trolling others, and other stuff.
Forget government surveillance making everyone "do good". Simply having the inability to edit your history (because doing so can cause it to go viral) means everyone is forced to "do good" all the time. One fuckup and quite possibly you've screwed yourself.
Even worse, while we hope people would discount transgressions made decades ago, dates are often missing or hard to find. That one time you made a bad decision will haunt you down the road because even though it happened 20 years ago, no one put a date on it so it appears just as recent as it did 20 years ago. No one can tell without the hidden or missing timestamp.
Hell, kids are getting caught up in it too - where once we let kids be kids, they can't be kids if what they did when they're 5 will be recorded and exposed when they're 18.
