Stores don't track my payments if I pay in cash and give them no identifying information (some local businesses, that I trust and want to support, I will join their rewards program that allows them to track me). I don't have a credit card, so they can't track me. My bank can only track me when I pay with my debit card, which I don't do often.
The thing is, in the offline world, you can control much better who's tracking you. And this is why people get upset at CCTV cameras too; while you can see the people around you who are observing you, and choose to modify you're behavior by whether someone's around or who is around, CCTV means that you may be observed, recorded, and tracked at any time without consent.
