United Kingdom
General community for news/discussion in the UK.
Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.
Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

I can't quite see whether they're addressing the outright theft of handsets; or the increasing amount of thefts of the infinitely more valuable staff handheld terminals.
It's a shame either way. I suppose an answer would be to stun or disable all phones until they are activated at a point of sale, rather than the opposite way round.
It still doesn't mitigate the attack vector of a corrupt employee though.
Could go like Argos, products all out the back, pictures or terminal bolted to the wall that can be used to browse products.
Yes it looks worse than products on display but I would go to Argos over having to knock to get into a locked shop.
