Maybe the plaintiff is fishing, but this is the reason I never abandoned my Covid mask after the pandemic. You want to string up cameras like Christmas lights? I can wear a mask! What ticks me off more is WalMart and some grocery stores putting monitors over certain aisles, to show you're being monitored. I'll sometimes flip them off.

Aldi really annoyed me by showing live video on the self checkout screen with the notice "Monitoring In Progress". Then I realized Walmart and many others have a camera notch on their monitors, too, so perhaps I should thank Aldi for at least being honest?

Anybody using facial recognition or similar may know me very well by now. I'm the guy in the mask who flips them off.

They've still got your gait analysis.

Wear different size shoes and put them on the wrong foot. Your brain will be struggling to have a consistent gait

This might fool the gait analysis, but they will come up with more metrics to analyze you by. You can't beat it. IMO, the only way to stop this is government

No, the only way to stop this is to simply get the CEOs arrested using the same technology they so desperately want to use.

False positive their ass into a cell and I'll guarantee you this garbage will stop fast.

Most policy decisions should put people in prison, laws be damned. We have to reign in corporate overreach while we still have a government to do it with.

Well that’s a not even a slippery slope. Thats straight authoritarianism. Imagine if the sitting US president followed your advice.

be sure to buy such shoes with cash or the Amazon cart ( or CC data ) will lead back to you.

That really winds me up too - it shows such contempt for legitimate customers.
