Oh wow ... stating this is just regular fingerprinting is out of touch.
Its like my electric energy supplier analyzing current data and knowing brand, model and type of dishwasher and fridge. Which they can.
That's putting it mildly.
It's if they'd know the exact food in your fridge and where you got it from. Or the exact makeup of the clothes you buy. Oh, kid's clothes? What a lovley daughter you have! Would you like some educational material targeted for 4-8 year-olds?
And aren't you expecting another one?
Use a blender? What lovely strawberry milkshakes you like for breakfast. Why not tell the store most of your food comes from to raise their prices a bit, since it seems to be a trend in your city?
Do you have meds in the fridge? Well, these items are often sold together, have a look. Oh, and a price increase.
