you’re sealioning. I’ve already dropped plenty of good evidence. You’re welcome to drop any evidence you have, at all, that they’re not. including the ACLU, and several other sources.
I’ll wait.
You’re wrong if you think you’re entire life isn’t already in Walmart’s database, though. Or any other major retailer. or minor retailer. Or the data brokers that are buying and selling from everybody. Welcome to 2024.
I cannot give you what you want. But I do have first hand experience with these systems. I don’t expect you to trust me, but they are doing this. They’d have to be monumentally stupid not to. The data is that valuable.
But you should probably go reread the alcu article, specifically the part where Walmart settled out of court because they were (illegally,) using clear view’s service.
Do you seriously think that they’re just gonna admit being monumentally creepy? Nope. But everyone is.
How, exactly, do you think the personalized ads wind up on your phone app?
Serious question, if you have a Walmart app or whatever for one store or another?
Or how any personalized ads works?
For physical locations using things like smart shelves, the IoT sensor sees you, looks you up, gives you a relevant advertisement and hopes you buy something.
None of that works without them tracking the ever living fuck out of you.
You don’t want to trust me, that’s fine. That’s your choice. But the next time you’re in a Walmart or somewhere walking by the soda aisles and they flash you an add for your favorite chips to go with that….
“hard” evidence.

I wouldn’t call conjecture “good evidence” under any circumstances.
You sound a bit salty.
Allow me to explain something.

… ask how they know what your favorite chips are.
