First it was self-checkout. Then it was online banking. Now you can just walk out of the store without even checking out or pulling out your money!
Amazon has come up with a new way to shop with Amazon Go. It is a physical store but you don’t have to wait in lines to purchase your items. The way it works is you go in and select your items. Whatever item you pick up will be charged to your account when you leave the store. Amazon is leading the way to a whole new form of shopping, but what kinds of risks will this shopping method bring?
As technology becomes more advanced it becomes increasingly important to maintain security and privacy of the individual. Every consumer wants to know that with the added convenience there won’t be future problems with identity theft or overcharging. Amazon hasn’t released too much information on how the system will work but claims that the new method is safe and reliable.
With every new discovery, there are possible issues. So far, Amazon seems to have their act together but only time will tell if their new innovation will be a success.
