Walmart employees are now wearing body cameras in some U.S. stores
Body cameras and the footage they gather are commonly advertised as a way to prevent shoplifting, but Walmart intends to use the tech for worker safety.
This has nothing to do with worker safety, or loss prevention. This is to basically spy on their employees.
These are going to be put on all employees. Then the footage will be run through an AI algorithm to search for keywords like "union," "organize," etc.
That is the end result, yes. It will likely be anything but for reasoning or rationalizing the program into existence.
Dystopian maybe, but as crazy as people have become I've been wondering if there's a less-than-obvious one any rando can purchase and wear.
Much like there's no fucking way I'd drive without a front and rear dashcam - because mine have saved me in not one, not two, but THREE different incidents and quite literally saved me five-figures in costs, at the very least - I'm kinda wondering if it makes sense to have bodycam footage the next time a Karen decides to have a crazy fit and I'm close enough that it could become my problem.
