Paying with phones

vendredi 9 mars 2018 à 01:00

Stores propose to do away with cash registers, and the staff that run them, by pressuring people into paying with their phones and thus getting totally profiled.

Using this dis-service will put other people out of work and thus spread poverty. It will also result in tracking you. So don't be tracked — pay cash!

If you go to a store and find you don't have enough cash, that is no reason to let the store know who you are. Visit an ATM to get cash, then pay cash!

And make sure that your computers' WiFi is totally off before you enter the store.

That will take a few minutes. Don't you value your freedom enough to make a few minutes' effort to preserve it?
