Supermarkets profits have never been higher and yet we’re all in a cost of living crisis. Now some have said it’s naked profiteering while others have said it must be something else. Most supermarkets work on a 1-3% margin which means they turn billions to make millions but if their profits are up… how else might they be making those sweet Benjamins? Or in the UK those sweet sweet King Charles. It’ll come as no surprise to anyone that the profit margin on our data is much higher than food and the value of our data is only going up and has no sale-by date on it, unlike these bananas. Let’s look at why supermarkets are becoming data brokers, how much your data is actually worth and what we can do about it.

Unfortunately, my experience is you have to register them first. I too have a worthless piece of unregistered plastic like that (Kaufland Card).
Sure, but you can usually register with fake info though. I’ve never seen one really verify much of any information.
Just use one of those email forwarding services that generates unique addresses.
everyone can sign up as “JP Morgan” at “555 Fuckoff Lane”. I’m guessing it might be better if we all standardize to make it harder to connect the sold datasets. If they have address checking we should find some tiny town with 200 people from google maps.
