My grocery store wants to know my BMI
(lemmy.world)
If they were interested in my location they could request location data. What are the odds they are doing this to directly market products to people based on health data?
Inb4 “They already do that based on what you regularly purchase”
Of course, yes they do. This appears to be one more layer on top of it. And surely they wouldn’t share that information with the pharmacy, right?
Because people need something to be enraged about 24/7. That doesn't mean that there isn't plenty out there to be frustrated or upset about, but it's just one more thing to add to the pile.
Also, fact checking. Nah let's just scream into the void about stuff we know nothing about nor can we be bothered to actually check what is happening.
