There was a meme on facebook this morning that asked what you don’t like about Supermarkets
This was my comment
. Big brother
The major supermarkets are now running a trial on a digital identity program,
They call it a profile so it sounds better ,
They take your digital photo on entering their store , you agree to this by entering.
They then give you a digital profile and a store tracking number.
As you walk around the store they follow you and I’m guessing watch what you purchase and put in your trolly ,basket or pocket.
This continues while you shop until you reach the checkout ,
Then they watch you scan your groceries or in rare cases have them scanned at a cash register ,
To confirm a selection match
Then once payment is made you are clear to go .
I have heard that they plan to eventually add gates just like at the railway stations , for us to exit once we are completely digitally cleared .
The supermarkets have publicly stated that they will delete your profile in this trial period as you exit the store ,
but I don’t believe that for a second ,
The supermarkets say that it’s for controlling store theft and store management , but what do you think ?
Is Big Brother just going too far and taking over and controlling our lives , and the country’s digital profiling data base is nearly complete.
Welcome to the transition
Cheers
