Video Claims Target Tracks Shoppers With Bluetooth

Shoppers react to a video claiming Target tracks customers via Bluetooth signals.

BobDarrin posted a video alleging Target uses Bluetooth signals to track shoppers inside stores. Replies from users like AFKHuckleBerry and CartwheelPrint voiced concerns that companies profit from personal data and habits without consent. Maveapproach noted recent app TOS updates as potential signs of expanded tracking. Martron3000 clarified that Bluetooth devices require initial user permission to connect automatically. Other posts, including from Realitytvguru13 and Mrturnup, expressed intent to avoid shopping at Target altogether.

Geolocation data started out as good for marketing and targeting customers with tailored offers. Now, it’s just surveillance and creepiness.

⚠️ If you’ve noticed, in the last month or two every app you can think of has sent out a new TOS update. Always read the fine print!

@BobDarrin Nothing is safe anymore. Again, everyone is making money off my data and habits but me. Not a single politician fighting to protect them tells me everything I need to know about where we’re headed as a society.
