RE: Amazon Go - No lines, No check-outs, Just Shop and Go!
It wouldn't look so pretty if you saw the shitload of cameras and sensors that's necessary to make this possible. Basically, you won't need to check out because Amazon will have a God-like view of you.
I wouldn't worry about that, the US Gov can already hack into your phone and turn on your camera and mic at any time to see what you're up to. They might as well take this service over from Amazon and call it GovGo. They just watch us all day long and buy us what they say we need. We just sit back and enjoy the cushy "slave" lives gov built for us. ;)
True, the cameras could be an eyesore.
It would be interesting to see how it can be gamed. Also how security and dispute resolution is handled.
