Der Nutzen von Cumulus, Scannern usw. steht außer Frage, aber diese Art von Praktiken sind meiner Meinung nach verabscheuungswürdig.
Ist das der Weg weiter zum Technofaschismus?
Is this the future that awaits us with Migros, Coop and co?

Tldr?
Can you develop your opinion please?
Tl,dw?
OP, better get checked for paranoia…
What makes you believe this?
No. Next question
They already do it online. If they could do it IRL they would; the digital price tags already exist, the facial recognition too, as well as the AI that tracks you round the store.
That’s in the US. This is Illegal in most countries.
None of this awaits Swiss super markets.
The moment they would it would be the end of that chain for good. Prices must be the same for all (same goes for any coupons, promotions etc. They all need to be potentially accessed by all.
It US is a whole other story. It’s a neo-liberal vulture capitalist oligarchy. They don’t have real consumer protection, that’s not in their interest.
The EU (and Switzerland) uses the Precautionary Principle (ban if potentially unsafe), requiring extensive testing and strict traceability, while the US follows a Risk-Based Approach meaning you can sell everything until proven harmful.
You can’t compare US corporate praxis with European corporate praxis.
No reason to fear.
