This is next level. I wonder if this is really possible. Like, do they have control on these things? I am thinking of a mass resistance where people make barcodes and go to these places to stick their own fair prices and pay. But may be we are not there yet.
Yeah, I’ve been on a kick lately of watching body/dash cam footage and several of them have been cops coming to arrest people that were recorded fucking around with self checkout.
It works for some, I’d caution even trying it though. If the bag scales are enabled, the weight discrepancy will flag it. Depending on how sensitive it is and jaded the workers are they may just press the bypass without a care.
Alternatively, imaging scanners (non laser based) tend to have the option of “produce assurance” where the image of what was scanned/keyed is compared against the average entry. Too big of a discrepancy will flag and force manual verification.

No, it works. Just, be aware that this is literal stealing and can have all the consequences thereof.

Fuck self checkout. Arrest the fuckers who gave ten people’s jobs to the customers.
