I didn't say they could stop it, I said they can track it to you as an individual. If you drive a car, ride a bus, or walk, we (private industry) and buy something with cash, we can track who you are and can tie exact purchases to you even if you spend cash. What will even surprise you more, is that even if you've NEVER visited our online ecommerce, we can tie all your other online activity to you, personally.C-dub wrote: ↑Wed Mar 01, 2023 10:15 pmI don't understand how that could be. For example, if my bank or the government determined that my Cherry Coke habit were unhealthy and I was only allowed to purchase up to three 20oz. bottles per week, but I paid for each of them with cash or the first three with a debit card and then a fourth with cash, how would they track that and know?chamberc wrote: ↑Tue Feb 28, 2023 2:32 pmBeen in retail for 25 years (fortune 100). Cash does nothing to protect your privacy. In this case, it would, if the vendor allows cash (no one is required to), would allow you to complete the purchase, but it makes no difference in identifying you and everything about you the same as if you paid for with something like a credit card.C-dub wrote: ↑Mon Feb 27, 2023 11:30 pm Cash is how I'll be rolling for now. Y'all have heard they are trying to get rid of cash, right? Tin foil hat time. Or is it?
Eliminating cash and going to all electronic payment for everything, coupled with stuff like this thread, gives governments the power to control what and how much we buy. If a particular food item is deemed to be not good for you then it cannot be purchased. Certain things can be limited. You've had enough bacon this month. You've purchased enough ammunition. That's enough gasoline this week. On and on and on.
