Amazon’s Creepy Palm-Scanning Payment System

Amazon’s Creepy Palm-Scanning Payment System

Amazon has announced plans to roll out its palm-scanning payment technology, Amazon One, to all Whole Foods locations by the end of 2023. The creepy technology goes far beyond scanning a customer’s palm print, instead using information like the vein pattern in the hand to establish identity. The technology works by scanning the unique lines, ridges, and vein patterns of a user’s palm, which Amazon claims is a secure and convenient alternative to traditional payment methods.
