Hence why this very post is about the method those companies are using to prevent such theft (in this case, facial recognition).

This subthread is not about the use of such a technology, but about Home Depot tracking a customer to build a prosecution case over time. So, no, they're not using it to prevent theft, they're using it to punish theft they've allowed.

Potato, potato.

Why should the company prosecuting the thieves be anyone else's problem?

Because a company isn't the government. The government prosecutes. A company might be an interested bystander, but they don't prosecute anyone.
