I don't want to shop where my biometric data is collected, but I do like my local Pennsylvania Wegmans. I wonder if my local store is harvesting my biometric data but not informing me because there are no local laws requiring them to do so.

It's not one of the major publicly traded grocery companies.

Instead of fee for service health care, many people would prefer the government be the sole payer. Why not do this for legal help, which is actually guaranteed in the Constitution? Why should people be expected to pay $74,000,000 to defend themselves from accusations of fraud?

Get used to the app then break it and come out with something new and charge a fee.

It's not your database, it belongs to the airlines. You must have agreed to them collecting and selling your personal data in the terms of the flight contract/ticket you purchased. This is just like the way you consented to your smart TV collecting and selling all your data because you plugged it in. I wish there was a legislative fix for this sort of thing in the USA.

That should be easy. The airlines could agree to pay the lawyers $40,000,000 and admit no wrongdoing. Maybe with any luck the airlines would also agree to provide a voucher for a bowl of nuts to anyone who flew in the past 10 years.

So? What could someone do with the information that your garage door opens every weekday at 7am, opens again at 6pm, and your heat is set to 55 degrees during those times?

Just got an email from United. (They use Newark as a hub so they are at a big risk of cancellations) They say anyone can get a refund from them -- even people with bottom of the line economy tickets. They also say they don't plan on cancelling international flights. The most at risk for cancellations are domestic flights to a non hub city. Travel insurance should pay too but I'd much rather get it directly from the airline.

Coming soon: we have detected an ad blocker, please turn it off to unlock the refrigerator door.

USA patent laws are awful. How can EpiPens be patent protected when epinephrine is a natural human hormone and not patentable and the rest of the EpiPen is a syringe, needle and spring?

Maybe I'll get my $3.50 in 2028 -- assuming the court doesn't find that I "agreed to the terms and conditions"
