Things have just gone too far now.. I would have though a slower introduction of fingerprint scanning but the big debut is in the grocery stores.

Offering more choices to the consumer is "things going too far"?

You do realize that it is completely voluntary right?

For now.

Just wait till everything is monitored by electronic tracking and your fingerprint is your only form of ID.

Wake up, go get breakfast. A computer records your order and saves it.
Get on the freeway and electronic toll devices and Navstar tracking watches your speed and rout you take to work, maby even listens in on your conversations with passengers.

At work you log on and do some business as well as take care of some personal stuff while all your transactions are recorded for "security and marketing reasons".

Lunch time. Its easy to tell what your having because your grocery transactions have been recorded the previous day. The file is kept and used to monitor your general health and marketability of certian products.

Work is over and the toll tag shows youve left early but navstar says you arrived home 20 minutes late? Maby you were having an affair? Maby you stoped for gass? no your finger print would confirm that? Well what is it then? GPS tracking and Toll Tags are currently admissable in divorce and custody battles and soon enough your personal buying habbits may be used to determine if you drink too much or stock your shelves with not enough fruits and vegetables for your kids.

Truth is that you stoped at Home Depot to pick up some things for relandscaping your yard and your home depot file gets added to your general file which makes its way to your Homeowners Union who decide to fine you $1000 for chabging the bushes in your front yard without asking. (true story)

While at home, watching cable your file shows that you will have steak and potatoes tonight with 2 a glass of red wine, and 4 beers which is concitered too much alcohol comsumption so your file grows a little red flag that gets noticed by your medical insurer and your premiums get raised or cancled because you are "living an unhealthy lifestyle".

We are being watched from the time we get up till the time we go to bed as well as while were sleeping. Files are being created on everyone and private companies are under no obligation to keep those files confidential. Even if they say they wont, in many ways they do.

These files can be purchaced, consolidated and resold to your medical/home insurer, your employeer, advertising groups, lawyers and all can be legaly used against you.

The more information we provide about our lives the more we will be judged and the ethics police will soon be pounding on your door for looking at Scat in OTD.

I lost my hands in a meat-cutting accident. I'll never trust ads from the back of Fifties men's magazines again.

I lost my hands, eyes, and vocal chords in an unusual gardening accident. I guess I would be shot?

There is not a lot of difference between a fox hole and a grave; but knowing that you dug your ditch and climbed in anyway.

Your ability to blindly mash away at a keyboard using only your toes, with no spelling mistakes is an inspiration to us all...  :wink:

Quote:

now thats a slippery slope fallacy if i have ever seen one. None of that stuff is going to happen as a result of a store allowing you to pay with a finger print ID vs. a card or cash.




EVERYTHING in their is an example of something thats already happened to people. Popular Mechanics had an great artical on this a year ago.

People are being tracked and watched and information is being gathered and filed at every angle. Is it too hard to believe that your personal information such as places you visit, shopping habits and what you do during the course of your normal day may be of interest to people who make money off your well being.

Right now employeers have the ability to use your personal medical records and credit history for or against you to determine employment. If youve got a major medical condition it will become harder and harder for you to find a job with a good medical plan.

Wake up people, try searching for yourself online and see just what you can come up with. I can get just about everything anyone would want to know about me and once more information becomes available, Im sure anyone else could get that information also.

Doubt that it could ever happen? It already has.

If this is already happening, why not use the fingerprint thing?

I didnt say it could/would never happen. Im just saying it has nothing to do with the article you posted or the store Jewel-Osco.
