Did someone else hold the patent for opening more than two of their fifty checkout lines to keep WalMart from doing it?

Yet there is still no technology to determine which bathroom a person should visit.

I’ve scored lots of quarters at Aldi putting lazy shoppers carts back. Why not?

Good luck in Texas, Walmart. Scarcely anyone speaks English where we live.

They sure do in Rockford, IL, southern Wisconsin, and Columbus, GA. If they don’t, the next miser will take the cart and the quarter.

that could raise serious privacy concerns from its shoppers and workers.

Blah, blah, blah. There is no expectation of privacy in public. It would be super great if everyone could remember this, thanks.

Walmart gets more creepy as Amazon.com takes over them

Additionally, the sound sensors can capture audio of conversations between guests and an employee stationed at the terminal,

Clearly illegal in several states, and likely illegal in most states if it also captures conversation to which the coerced consenting party (the employee) isn't a party. Question: Can Karen Roberts spell 'felony'?

“Aldi’s. Because lazy bastards never return the cart for their quarter. “

Must be your town. Never seen an empty buggy in the parking lot at our local Aldis.

How many recordings does Wal-Mart need of screaming kids and a mom threatening to “whoop their behinds?”

Well, I’m glad to see that Walmart’s spying on their customers will be keeping up with Amazon, Facebook and Google. And I’m sure that their spying will be limited JUST to those things that they listed in the article.

I wonder how sensitive their microphones are. Hopefully they will be able to pick up the cursing under my breath of idiot people blocking the aisles needlessly, because that is about all I ever utter in a Walmart, other than a “Thank You” to the cashier when I’m done.

Perhaps they’ll hear me cussing out there self check out kiosk when the card scanner says “bad card”. The card works fine, just not in your broke ass machine Wal-Mart.
