I don't think any of these companies have a right to do so, it's part of the problem

You're on their property

I'm not convinced that means they get the right to scan my face, track my biometric data, and stick me into their customer data profile for all eternity

If stepping onto someone's public property means consent to all kinds of invasive shit then you basically have to live like a hermit

Which is inappropriate for a supposedly free society

Society isn't free if there's a camera in the bank?

Should they have the right to sweep up your dead skin cells to scan your genome?

Is there a sign that says "BTW if you enter here we expect your DNA"?

There won't need to be one once it becomes normalized

There needs to be with cameras, and they're normalized

That's not particularly true since there are cameras literally everywhere, but I've never seen a sticker saying, "You are being recorded" in WalMart

And Google et al tell you what you're signing over. The issue is how EULA's and TOS's are handled

Maybe it's off in the break room

So lets say I walk into the Amazon store with an electronic signal jammer

Anything wrong with that?

Canada requires that you have a sign, to my knowledge. If the States doesn't you're probably getting cucked

And I'd assume that signal jamming is banned in such a store, and the TOS likely include not sabotaging their entire system

So it's okay for the arms race to go in one direction, but not for people to take precautions against intrusions of privacy by corporate entities

Gotcha

>why isn't it okay for me to jam signals in a store that operates entirely based on automation and item scanning?
Is this a ruse?

How is it any different than an employee watching you while you’re in the store?

The employee probably doesn't have a photographic memory and replay function

Humans aren't perfect recording devices with immutable memory?

That’s not the point.

People are already watching you on their private property.

It’s a matter of protecting their assets.

Sure. I don't have a problem with that

I do have a problem with making a society where you can't do anything without having data collected about your activity and sent to go reside in various different profiles by the govt & corporate entities for all time.

But your solution is to give government some level of control over those data collection entities, when the government is one of their customers lol

What's my solution again?

I was under the impression that it involved pushing for regulation

Of what?

Data collection and consolidation, as per your comment on these info databases not being allowed

And your comment about average people not being tech savvy enough for the market solution

And the IBoR stuff

I certainly don't feel like I have a solution, just pointing out that laissez faire attitudes towards this are extremely dangerous

If it isn’t from the private company or from the government, then it will be from ordinary citizens. How pictures of ‘Walmart people’ have you seen.

Most of the SJWs we all laugh at are being filmed without their consent

Voice to text doesn’t understand southern. Lol

This is mostly from individual people with cellphones

Not government or corporations

A digital bill of rights can protect from the ramifications with increasing digital data.
