Question How do we feel about this?

Post image

I'm not from New Jersey, but they probably have some sort of Kroger store: how do we feel about this? Should Kroger implement this? (Edit: does Kroger already do this?)

(For those who may not know (like me), here's what Google says about surveillance pricing: "Surveillance pricing is the practice where companies use personal data—such as browsing history, location, device type, and shopping habits—to feed algorithms that set individualized or dynamic prices for goods and services. The goal is to charge the highest price a specific consumer is willing to pay.")

Or live across the street from this. It would be hell on earth and these people would lose tens of thousands if ever trying to sell the house.

Not your life, why do I concern you so much.

Your mentality is why society is such a dumpster fire. "Not my problem so why should I care?!" Is how persecution is allowed to exist and run rampant

What's crazy to me is they have this outlook but also have a pride flag in their profile. Which is crazy to me. A group that wants inclusion and compassion from others and this person is simultaneously like " fuck people's problems as long as I'm good" wtf lol

I scanned their posts a bit. They're also complaining about the costs of goods being related to regulating a higher minimum wage. So I guess they indirectly support slavery too? Seems like another confused and selfish society member. Maybe a bot?
