Amazon Piracy Is Stealing More and More Of Your Private Information

Amazon is getting drunk with power off your information.

It is creepy and not ok.

Amazon is asking customers in select stores in CA to scan their palm, in order to buy groceries. Dystopian, right?

According to Bon Appetit:

Jeff Bezos is one step closer to transforming your mortal bag of bones into a lean, mean, money-dispensing machine. The body part in question: Your hands. Amazon is rolling out its palm-scanning technology at more than 65 Whole Foods grocery stores in California over the coming weeks. The biometric tech, called Amazon One, was patented in 2019, and this is the company’s biggest launch yet. It’s pretty much as dystopian as it sounds.

Here’s how it works:

• Customers can activate their palms by registering a handprint via an Amazon One kiosk or at checkout in participating stores.
• You’ll also need to offer a bank card, provide your phone number, and agree to Amazon’s terms and conditions.
• Once set up, put your purchases on the belt.
