G+_Daniel Kelly Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 Well that means I will not be filling up in tesco any more... They say no images are stored... But advertising works better when you are tracked....

G+_Rory Glynn Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 That's funny, the only Tesco petrol station I've ever been to had you pay at the pump. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Gareth Berry Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 I don't see the issue. If they aren't recognising you personally, just guessing age and gender what's the problem? If they were recognising you as in Minority Report that could be something to be concerned about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Daniel Kelly Posted November 4, 2013 Author Share Posted November 4, 2013 yes but how long before they change that. Tesco already has the biggest shopper habit databases in the uk ad that to possible next evolutions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Rory Glynn Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 What if as a fat guy, I get chocolate bars heavily advertised to me? That could make it very difficult to maintain a diet. But seriously, I don't give a crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Gareth Berry Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 We don't know. If and when they do I'll reconsider my position. Unless you pay cash and don't use their loyalty scheme then Tesco know who you are when you shop anyway though. Is having data about you a bad thing?
