My local Kroger is now taking video of the faces of every customer as they check out. To their credit they make it obvious by having a display screen at each register where you can see what they are recording, but I stopped shopping there for that reason.

For example, to give some vague indication of just how pervasive it already is: https://www.google.com/search?q=index+of+public+webcams https://www.google.com/search?q=index+of+public+webcams I guarantee you there's 5000 private webcams and non-web cams pointed at the street for everyone listed there. 100 government ones. Stopping shopping is not an effective punishment, and will not lead to stopping progress on machine learning. I would just ignore it. Besides, at this point, it's probably just a security cam. 24h and your video is gone (assuming the store wasn't attacked).
