minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink19•5 months agoAgreed. The only change is a machine scanning your card rather than a pair of eyeballs.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink5•5 months agoDoesn’t the card go into a machine at the checkout anyways? They’re just changing the location of the machine, really, not introducing something new.
minus-square@Zahille7link5•4 months agoI wouldn’t be surprised if you had to scan the card twice now because of this though. I doubt they’d have the ability or foresight to scan as they walk through the door and nowhere else.
