Walgreens tests tech that sort of recognizes you in-store.
Retail Wire: Walgreens is piloting a line of “smart coolers” with the ability to display targeted ads to in-store shoppers.
Instead of seeing through the glass to drinks, ice cream and other items, shoppers view digitized representations of available products inside, or basically a planogram on the front of refrigerator and freezer doors.
The system involves using sensors that detect shoppers and cameras that scan their faces to estimate their gender and approximate age for delivering targeted messages. Weather, time of day and other events may also influence messaging.
Beyond messaging, iris-tracking technology can show which items are picked up or are looked at, providing insights into the effectiveness on-screen promotions and the overall display. more
Walgreens refuses to fill prescriptions from doctors for lifesaving treatments for Covid so they are on my never visit or spend a dime there again list.
“Are we going to have to wear disguises when we shop at Walgreens?”
Nah.
Just don’t shop there.
Problem.
Solved.
May have to switch out eyes as Tom Cruise’s character in Minority Report.
If you have to go to Walgreens you could wear these.

Will the implement a shoplifter feature where the Thief can pre-select what he wants to pilfer and they will have it waiting for him/her pre-boxed & notify the computer that its all free?
How embarrassing when you walk down the aisle and it starts showing ads for Depends and Preparation H.
They installed these in Vegas.
Stupid doors still need to be opened because the stock is depleted due to biden*’s America.
Of course the prices don’t match between the video display and the physical price tags, due to biden*’s inflation…
I’m guessing this is more important to them than the rampant shoplifting in San Francisco and other places. lol

People are hoarding again due to stock issues.
If you go to the store eight times and they finally have that item they haven’t had since July, you buy the whole fucking lot…
Can’t wait until the first trans woman gets upset when offered items men use.
I drive by one every day, but I’ve only gone into a Walgreens once. Since their Sale prices were only available to people who were registered on-line and had the phone application installed, I handed the cashier my items and walked out, never to return.
Some of that recognition software can even identify your gait; put a burr in your shoe.
How will it respond to a middle finger?
Walgreens track record of late has not been good (covid jabs instead of requested flu shot, adult dose covid jabs into kids). This will not help.
Wait.
People actually PAY for their purchases at Walgreens?
A lot don’t.
That’s….creepy. Also, what gonna happen when the “smart coolers” misgender the trannies? ‘Cuz ya know that’s gonna happen. Those troons aren’t fooling anybody, least of all a “smart cooler”.
