In reply to booger. I would still use cash as much as possible. That will prevent the details of purchases that they're looking to track.

In reply to Leethal. It is called a moderation queue and sometimes it takes several days to approve comments, especially when I am travelling. So maybe next time you could consider that there may be another reason why your comment hasn’t shown up yet and not everything is a fucking conspiracy?

Time to do the same to your politicians. They must be tracked everywhere they go, all phone calls recorded at work, their complete finances are to be opened to the public, etc.

There’s a big difference between a store loyalty program in which they use the information to send me coupons and deals on things they know I would puchase, and the government using personal information to determine what benefits one is eligible for, or deciding that someone eats too much sugar or meat and therefore won’t get certain medical help.

Absolute insanity. First the supermarkets want your data to target you with ads, so you will buy stuff that you don’t need just to feel good. And now the state wants to know everything, of course just to guide taxes, because they want only your best. Except that for taxing purposes, they could simply track everything that is sold at a general level. No need to sign up the individuals. So I call bullsh*t on their reasoning. They just want to control you 100%.

In America, you can pay cash. That blocks tracking the individuals. Not sure this works in Norway, but happy to help the people of a valuable American ally.
