Yet another reason not to ship at coles. They are getting a beating in their ACCC hearing too. Independent grocers and Aldi should be the default for everyone. Unfortunately, most people shop at the duopoly to their long term detriment.
It’s good to see the abc actually calling out the implications and problems too. Not just for consumers, but for coles and for the countries interests. It makes it harder for coles to spin it as being for shareholders or for cost pressures etc.
It’s not really like you have much choice given there is a duopoly of supermarkets.
My local woolies recently got a fuckload more cams installed in addition to the ones they already had. The arrangement looked very similar to some of the flock setups I’ve seen people posting about. Shit sucks.
Australia is always the testing ground for what they do later. Austalians will accept almost any horrible surveillance, so if they beta test there and Austalians won’t comply, they slow the roll out.
