what are the requirements of Amazon go? can I use a dummy card with 1$ on it?

2018-01-30 15:16:04 UTC  

How much money does it try to authenticate?

2018-01-30 15:16:09 UTC  

you just need the app afaik

2018-01-30 15:16:11 UTC  

Can I get a burner card from 7-11?

2018-01-30 15:16:21 UTC  

I think linus said $1

2018-01-30 15:16:50 UTC  

I don't know about burner cards

2018-01-30 15:17:11 UTC  

buy a visa gift card for 5$

2018-01-30 15:17:15 UTC  

sign up with fake name

2018-01-30 15:17:20 UTC  

walk in take everything walk out

2018-01-30 15:17:42 UTC  

ya it is only calculated and charged after exit

2018-01-30 15:19:32 UTC  

What if you walk in and grab someone else's bag?

2018-01-30 15:19:40 UTC  

there are so many exploits I cant even count

2018-01-30 15:20:06 UTC  

the reality is Amazon is running a trial of honor system shopping and nothing more

2018-01-30 15:20:10 UTC  

ya even RFID could be countered with a shield

2018-01-30 15:20:28 UTC  

RFID would be stupid for this anyways

2018-01-30 15:20:36 UTC  

they dont use rfid

2018-01-30 15:20:46 UTC  

would cost them what, 50c per chip?

2018-01-30 15:20:52 UTC  

not worth it

2018-01-30 15:21:02 UTC  

what if identical twins walk in and grab different things and walk past each toher several times

2018-01-30 15:21:02 UTC  

i thought they were less than .05c

2018-01-30 15:21:50 UTC  

if they walk past each other it doesn't matter, body detection and tracking is fairly straightforward given a point cloud constructed from multiple camera angles

2018-01-30 15:22:04 UTC  

throw a blanket over both of them at the same time

2018-01-30 15:22:08 UTC  

or a jacket

2018-01-30 15:22:09 UTC  

now that's evil

2018-01-30 15:22:28 UTC  

Doesn't it calculate your inventory when you walk out the door? I mean. It does give some kind of timer on how long you spent inside the store based on Linus video

2018-01-30 15:22:37 UTC  

what is a group of clowns had to go shopping at the same time???

2018-01-30 15:22:42 UTC  

haha

2018-01-30 15:22:48 UTC  

or Anons in masks?

2018-01-30 15:22:48 UTC  

identical clowns

2018-01-30 15:23:04 UTC  

i bet I can walk in, take something, and walk out without paying in one minute

2018-01-30 15:23:30 UTC  

theft misdemeanor comes to mind

2018-01-30 15:23:45 UTC  

you have to be charged

2018-01-30 15:23:47 UTC  

not if they publicize that they dont care becuase it cant hapen

2018-01-30 15:24:14 UTC  

@Kane.🇺🇸.Nexus not quite, they send a quick verification charge

2018-01-30 15:24:23 UTC  

I doubt tim will make a how to vid on it

2018-01-30 15:24:40 UTC  

Im going to try, and Im going to explain how we did it

2018-01-30 15:24:42 UTC  

that would be illegal imo

2018-01-30 15:25:08 UTC  

it will be a fascinating legal battle

2018-01-30 15:25:11 UTC  

@ping I mean you have to be charged with the crime

2018-01-30 15:25:18 UTC  

oh lmao

2018-01-30 15:25:38 UTC  

amazon would have to prove intent
