Your location within the store can be tracked as well. Kroger also says that in “select locations” store cameras are collecting facial recognition data..." #loyaltycard #southafrica #clicks #woolworths #checkers #game #builders #makro

Well I'm deffo technically a "Boomer" (just; '62) but 45 years (& counting) in tech means I don't seem to feel or act like one (having just explained to a 25yo exactly how their #TescoClubCard is actually a covert spying & manipulation device)...
