So lately the complex I've been living in has been pushing out this new program : Amazon Hub.

It is basically a wall of armored boxes where you come and pick up your packages. Neat. Thanks for keeping my online purchases safe and secure, and also in a way that I don't have to wait for your lazy ass to open the doors and let me access my stuffs. Except these boxes are accessed via email and, as I am led to believe, facial/voice recognition.

I don't know, I have never been a fan of big tech. People call me scared and delusional, but I've read some things that make me feel justified in my fear for the world of 1984. It just seems all too uncanny. Amazon is already contracted by some guvvies. I don't want to add myself to the system, willingly.

But the people I am surrounded by continuously talk down on me and say they don't care, it is convenient.

So this is how liberty dies? What are your thoughts, Phuks?

edit: damn I forgot the extra 'o' in "too"

If I have to go to any store that wants to connect my face to my payment form, I cover the camera. Period. There is absolutely no law requiring me to submit to that kind of crap.

What the fuck?I've never seen anything like that down here. It's creepy.

Go to any walmart self-checkout. The screen you look at? They have cameras on top, just like laptops.
