Doing that without consent is still obnoxious, but a far cry from embedding a camera in the PoS terminal that captures everybody as they check-out. 7-11 might also do that, but it wasn't reported here.
- kjaftaedi 5y agoThey did it with consent. The issue is that regardless of whether the users gave consent, their actions still ran afoul of Australian law.
- theteapot 5y agoThere was no consent. I've done that "survey". No idea my photo was being taken or that there was even a camera.

- truemotive 5y agothe laziness of it all would be funny, if it didn’t indicate that people have to now be on the lookout at this casual of a level.
