I'm surprised people read Amazon Go as shoplifting friendly.
My first thought was: wow, and they made it much harder to shoplift. In a regular store you can just tuck an item in your jacket. With this tech, they know when the item left the shelf, that you were standing there, and that it left the store with you.
Sure, it's hackable. Everything is hackable. But this actually seems like an anti-shoplifting measure to me.
Heck, I could imagine them installing this system in a normally staffed store just to detect shoplifting!
