There's too much invasion of privacy happening at a real fast pace. I don't like it.

Imagine how the insurance companies could use this info. You ate at McDonald's three times last month, bought oreos and other junk food, etc. Not to mention all the other ways that information could be used to box you in.

This makes me somewhat more grateful to live out in the boonies. I never use a credit card, I pay with cash. We don't have regular grocery stores here, so we don't have those cards. When we left Houston almost 4 years ago, they already had those cards that would get you "better deals" so I had one. It bothered me some back then because I knew they could keep track of everything I bought. Not that I have anything to hide, but it is somewhat personal, especially concerning women's products and such. I have to admit I miss my favorite Randell's though.
