Oh fucking joyous, automatic surge pricing labels have finally hit the UK, can’t wait for it to be tied to your wifi shadow and device biometrics so that supermarkets can charge people more for daily goods than their neighbours due to their credit/social/political standing.
I mean “Haha that means it’s free, right? Lol.”

Only a matter of time before a store picks up data on certain people’s net worth and suddenly all the price tags double when they walk down an aisle.

Sorry, zero is a number, so it can’t be free. One soul please, or alternatively one upper and one lower limb.

It already is, which is why I turn off all radios on my phone and put it in airplane mode when I go grocery shopping now. But even then, I’m pretty sure they can still track the beacon signal wifi and BT give off even when disabled.
