This is nothing. The point here is that you walk out without stopping by a cash register.
They can do that already. With your card they know what you buy. Tag your face with facial recognition and the security cameras can already track your every move inside the store. Nothing has changed. This is just more convenient since you don't have to wait in line for the cash register.
There is that. One other problem is that it excludes potential customers. Granted, it's a Whole Foods in wealth-ridden DC, so the impact might be minimal here.
I suppose the only valid criticism is that you can't use cash. It does suck not to have the option. If they added one single self-service scanner thingy on a corner that accepts bills, everyone would win.
That's a feature, not a bug.
