It's even worse as an associate. They make us sign up for some social media I never use, download apps on our phones, and make us give them our handprints for a machine to take out our tills. And we're getting face scanned by cameras all day. Dystopian nightmare and it makes me feel ashamed to have accepted the job here.
I use GOS and therefore believe that I have some level of protection on the WiFi level based off of that, and I have their apps on a separate profile but it's getting tougher on privacy here at Walmart.
Edit: That's also why I have no pictures of me in my socials and deleted my Facebook, Instagram, and twitter, so they shouldn't have too many ways to market to me aside through my debit and credit cards possibly.
Revoke the data privileges of the app on your phone. That will effectively neuter it, while you can show them it's there.
I have all of their apps on a separate profile. One app I do sadly need data for to check my schedule and look up prices of things.
