I have a question… there’s data on my phone and other devices that are protected under an active NDA. I am legally obligated to prevent disclosure of that information.

So… what happens then?

You know what? At this point, I’m just gonna go ahead and say that if you voted for that orange idiot, fuck you and I hope you grab your own pussy.

I say fight fire with fire

Meh

I wonder if they just call a MS Win11 API to get their tracking ID just to make it a well rounded spy conglomerate

Fuck those narcissists

The orange idiot would still call it a hoax

Nice 5090… buttons…

Does that make the tracking faster too?

Or umbrellas will be pricier when it’s raining lol…

Hmm… I suppose technically they can ID your phone via Bluetooth / wifi / However, but that’s too coarse grained. And what if it’s me and you reaching for a tub of butter at the same time? What price is displayed and who gets “tagged” with it? What happens on a typical grocery store shelf where there’s 8000 items within reaching distance? Do all the tags change? lol

Maybe nfc or rfid for more specific detection? But that’s really close … You”d almost have to purposely hold your phone / card next to the tag for that… and oh by the way, the tag would all of a sudden stop being a dumb eink display with a one-way mechanism, and it would require the ability to do all kinds of fancy radio telemetry not to mention communications.

I feel like if anything were to practically happened it would be closer to the Amazon store concept where they didn’t have any employees and just a bunch of cameras, watching your face and what you picked up and put in your bag or whatever. And then “AI” (offshore people) would charge it accordingly. It would still only work, of course, for use cases were single consumer presence was detected nearby, etc. oh and can you imagine Someone going to a store with a phone zoomed in on the prices recording a video and then watching the prices change as they got closer?

Interesting thought experiment

One thing that always confused me about this… if the price is so dynamic that it can change per person, how does the price get tagged to that person all the way to the register? It’s not like there’s a new barcode or rfid tag that magically appears between the milk isle and the front of the store.

It’s almost like M$ is trying to push people to Linux at this point

This will 100% happen. Hell, I couldn’t even leave a critical google review of a nearby middle eastern hotel because of government censorship.

Again… “Look at this performance improvement we really should’ve always had, also what tracking ID?”

Chortle my balls, #nannythropic

Whoah hold on… the orange idiot is getting way too much athleticism credit here…

I’ve noticed a lot of windows improvement related posts lately, but absolutely none of them have mentioned a thing about the most important part which is yanking out that stupid fucking tracking ID. What is this, the “what Epstein files “ moment for Microsoft?

Doesn’t matter they’ve been making it shit for years and just at the wrong time. I’m with the other person on Let’s use Linux. Microsoft can fuck off
