They are sneaky huh! American Grocery Stores are spying on you

Take Kroger for example, “They have like alternative profit divisions that are solely focused on monetizing our personal information”

🚨 New Microsoft powered facial recognition technology is being implemented

“Monetizing all the customer data they've actually taken in. And wildly enough, they've made more than a billion from this. A grocery store made a billion dollars from monetizing your information. Like this is a store that profits like three and a half billion a year. And one third of that comes from monetizing our information”

“Another thing I learned was like, you know those little digital price things. Like instead of having the paper one, they got a digital one. Did you know that's there? So they can like change the prices in real time based upon the traffic pat patterns in the store. Like they will change it in real time if more people are in the store.

— Even wilder, Kroger has this thing called an edge shelf which is developed with Microsoft, which will actually facially recognize you, determine your like age and gender and things like that, and then adjust prices based upon what the AI thinks you'd be willing to pay for. Something like that's f*cking nuts.

Like I expected to see this type of technology in like CIA facilities or embassies, but in a grocery store.” I used to shop at Kroger but I had it now.
