I went to kfc for lunch because some marketer posted here about a buy one get one free deal but when I went inside the stupid cunt at the register said it was online only. I said so you know the promotion exists but instead of just letting me use it you're going to make me take my phone out and place my order there while I'm standing right in front of you and she just said online only like a fucking robot. so I go to the website to place my fucking order and it fucking wants me to sign up for a fucking account just to get the fucking deal, and after I go through with the humiliation ritual to get my damn free chicken it says it's "out of stock" even though I'm standing in the fucking store and can see chicken in the fucking warmer behind the counter. I told the bitch this was stupid as hell and went to chick fila instead.

pic related is what I wish would happen to every stupid retard who ever had an idea of using a goddamn phone for anything but making calls.

>Get on a bus
>Get a bus ticket
>Free McDonalds cheeseburger meal with this ticket
>Go to McDonalds
>Scan my bus ticket at the self-checkout kiosk
>Go and wait for my meal
>Right as the wagie is handing it to me he has a sour look on his face and says "Ummm you're supposed to fill out the survey to be entitled to this"
>Doesn't let go of the bag until he says this
>Just look at him like "Jesus christ man, how sad is your fucking life that this is a highlight of your day"
>Take my food and leave
Wageslaves are just sad little petty people anon, it's nothing personal.

the whole point of these offers is to get you to install an app so they can mine your phone for data and sell your information to advertisers and probably the government (the government cannot spy on you but they can buy mass troves of information from people who sell to ad suppliers; information that is anonymized with varying degrees of thoroughness but which an AI could easily correlate with actual identities.)

i fully expect a point at which if you don't have a phone you can't do anything and the respond to this will be give everyone a phone and then that's the end of your private life in any meaningful way.

late been asked to

>install an app for clocking in to work
>install an app to unlock my apartment door
>install an app for paying rent

in each case i have found an alternative, though the clocking in for work thing probably would not have an alternative, idk because i left that job after one day.

They will never be able to do this. They can't make us adopt their technology.
Jobs are different, and I simply won't take one if they want me to have a smartphone.
Hard enough finding work where you're not under video surveillance at all times. The future fucking sucks.

That's how online deals work. You give them your info, they collect statistics they keep for life, and then reward your fat ass with chicken.

oh but they can, and they do. history is replete with examples.

The only people concerned about conspiracy theories involving the government data-mining their phones via fast food apps are pedophiles with phones full of CP and text messages attempting to contact minors.

That's not true.

I'm going to fight it for as long as I can. Then I'll just drop out of society if I need to. They can't make me participate in tracking my location and my every thought and communication.

the government is on record purchasing ad data because of laws that make it illegal for them to spy domestically. not going to effort post because some googling will yield the information you seek, if you go looking.

you should be very concerned even if you're a perfect little saint, not that any of us are.

This. It's in everyone's best interest to question and challenge all the loss of privacy being foisted on us more each year.
For me it's just a matter of principle. Yes, they give MANY incentives to switch to their way of doing things. Amazing deals on stuff.
But it takes more than a bargain on a burger for me to opt into everything those apps and the pocket computers they operate on entail.
