Methinks they had a few people doing research on this via the internet forums, gathering feelings and opinions, and realized just exactly what people really thought about this proposed "wireless inventory control system".

Probably came here first and saw what was written up!

*happydance* woo! I knew they'd have to drop the whole thing. Benetton tried the same thing not so long ago, and they had to drop it because of public opinion, too. I'm very glad this got shot down. I really dont' want WalMart of all places (not that I shop there...well, except for some stuff that I can't get anyplace else) knowing exactly what I buy and what I do with it. I mean, if I buy underwear there, when I wear it and where I go with it is my business!
