Retail business asking for personal details shouldn’t be a thing.

I just walked into a store and bought a pair of socks. And before I could pay I was asked for:

• Full name

• Address

• Email

• Phone

To buy a $15 pair of fucking socks.

Businesses, stop this shit. Just let me pay and go home. I will never give a solitary shit about your marketing to me, and this drawn out process at the register only makes me never want to come back.

In a world of daily data leaks and cyber attacks, I’m not giving you one piece of true information anyway.

  • Yeah I feel that, it's pretty bad honestly. Whenever I am asked I just say "no thank you" and it seems to work pretty well. Annoying how predatory they are for your data though
