Went to Walmart with husband yesterday and i woke up this morning with an email stating- thank you for your latest purchase; because we love you so much we have a wonderful convenience of tracking you and your purchases here.
I don’t have their app. I wasn’t signed in to their website. And my husband used his CC not mine. I also have all my location features off my phone as an aside.
So I don’t like where we are headed here.
Purchase tracking. Carbon tracking. Privacy obliterated. Dystopian feel.
My only recourse was to delete my CC information from their website. And do as they said in their Privacy link. But i am not into trusting them or Amazon et al.
What else can i do?
Not only with Walmart, but to protect my online, purchasing and financial privacy moving forward. Are cash transactions the only way.
Can someone advise?
