Have you heard of "SURVEILLANCE PRICING" ?

It is a real thing.

Welcomed to 1984 5.0, or, is it more versions?
How many versions have we iterated already?

WHAT.
THE.

Now, just as the merger trial is starting, Kroger is involved in a new controversy: The FTC is seeking information on Kroger’s use of facial recognition technology and AI algorithms to profile its customers in real time, in its practice of “surveillance pricing.”

Surveillance pricing refers to charging different people different prices based on personal characteristics, such as the shopper’s age, gender, home address, and buying habits. Stores can even use data on socioeconomic status, credit history, and personal income to set a unique price for each individual.

Until lately, this information has been collected mainly from online browsing and phone apps, to determine how likely a shopper is to buy a certain product.

Now, however, Kroger has allied with Microsoft to develop facial recognition technology enabling identification of individuals and the quick modification of prices in the store through its electronic shelf labels or ESLs. While ESLs were initially promoted as a consumer-friendly technology offering video ads and personalized shopping assistance, now they will also be used to price gouge unsuspecting customers through this new program of surveillance pricing.

We must send letters to Kroger CEO Rodney McMullen to stop this terrible new practice in its tracks! Demand that Kroger stop using facial recognition and surveillance pricing now.

By the way, Kamala hugs too many people.

Today is the disgusting farce of my birthday.
It is a sick joke.

I am a failure.
I am a mistake.
I failed at everything.
I am destitute.
I wish that this building would fall on me and crush me.
I should never have been born.

Celebrate a destitute failure?
Celebrate a mistake?
No.

I am a Disruptor Unicorn. I don't fit in your limited box. I deserve to be celebrated and rewarded for the exceptional and unusual combination of talents that I have, not discarded as trash and starved because I don't fit in your limited box.

I challenge those I interact with to expand their view rather than make me smaller to fit their limited parameters.

I challenge you to make your world bigger rather than insisting that I crush myself into your limited box.

I challenge those I interact with to receive me for ALL that I am, and I welcome you to engage with me on the things that are relevant to you as you need. Put down the desire to limit me because you can't imagine someone being capable in all of the areas that I am. I challenge you to discard your limited views of what is possible for a person to be, and open space for all of me.

Specialization is limitation. Focus has value and I would never say otherwise, and there are times when a particular focus is needed. However, insisting that someone only be ONE thing, and only allowing that they are valuable and deserve to thrive on the basis of one criteria, excluding all other elements, is small-minded and trapped in limitation.

How is limitation and close-mindedness healing the world?
Why must I be starved because I am not easily defined by you?
