My friend just sent this to me after seeing it at a Whole Foods in California:

With how easy it already is to tap a card, why would anybody sign up to use this for payment? It's mind boggling to me.

Screw just your finger prints, Amazon already has access to that database thanks to the 5-0, so they now want to know every line on your hand! Best at least give people palm readings after the sign up! /s

I would do this if it wasn't a part of the US tech-military-intelligence system. It is nice. I certainly don't need it though. Don't give these people the tools to kill more efficiently. Not like I can afford to shop at Whole Paycheck anyways
