Theft in retail had been a norm since it's inception, and always built into budgets in a percentage because we know a certain percentage are psychopaths and will steal and the measures to prevent it aren't worth the additional cost compared to their usefulness. It's part of doing business in a large retail environment. Hmm I wonder why stores would feel the need to suddenly implement this? Could it be.. criminality among the sudden mass of immigration? Create the problem, offer your solution, gain control. Like the mob. THIS IS NOT ABOUT THEFT, AT ALL. It IS ALL about normalizing an animal farm-style prision-keeping technology where they control your exclusion to everything, make you subject to their will, and encouraging the participation in people around you (other local "security guard"). It's disgusting, and that store owner and security guard should be flogged in the street by everyone who knows this (in this case, proverbial) woman. In the choice of dystopian technologies, they went damn near full-bore. The days of eye replacements and Face Off surgeries are currently visible in the horizon. #nostr #nostriches #plebs #plebchain #grownostr #dystopia #fightwitheverythingyouvegot nostr:nevent1qqsqt5fz6f23n4r0psh8qaxwrpgqd398ahm84ewn42xg88k30zddsccppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0qgsycdlc65ja0ghy2qxqr5zxts3krc5nlq9gm0k3ghvghfsem2fnglqrqsqqqqqpmlev0c
