They always show me my total before the cars swipe, so as long as the obfuscation works until the card swipe, at least it would prevent dynamic pricing.

Dynamic pricing can’t be done legally in many states because prices on shelves have to match at checkout, and multiple people can see a label at once.

I mean that assumes that you can’t assign the highest price to non-facially recognized people.

Part of the dynamic pricing is that you don’t need to have specific individual targets to do cluster based pricing

So if I am running the dynamic price tuning, then I’ll just jack up prices if faces are obfuscated.

You have to understand the moment you walk into any private establishment that’s a business, you are quite literally walking into a Skinner box at this point.
