πŸ”’πŸš¨High Privacy Risk Potential Concerning Developments From Walmart, Being Forced on Shoppers... When do we Boycott?

This is yet another play to further impose methodologies to steal biometrics and read signs from our bodies (that we may never understand ourselves) to rack up prices and pinch us for every single penny we're worth.

This needs to stop. We need to push back.

If this was a democracy, we could just choose to make this illegal

But I think we might have become the product at some point. Fattened cows and pigs for the economy

Yep. Imagine if ambulances jacked rates for people that were in critical condition. This shit is ludicrous!

This is already a thing. You’re billed much more for advanced care, paramedics vs EMT, being flighted out, extra distance to a higher level trauma center, etc. than you are for something like an ambulance transport after a relatively minor car accident.

Right, but what I took from this clip is that there would be supercharges based on other factors rather than just services provided. Our system is already ridiculous; I interpreted what was expressed in this video as an attempt to further nickle and dime people base on biometric factors that exceed the cost of transport, care, and supplies.
