Target's Close Relationship to Gov't Needs to Be Watched - infowars.com
Excerpt from this article:
“... 'In many ways, Target is actually a high-tech company
masquerading as a retailer.' Target has been actively involved with law
enforcement since the mid-90’s but 'intensified' after 9/11.
And Target’s high tech masquerading isn’t just about crime solving. Target is watching its customers very, very closely. Target was able to tell that a teenage girl was pregnant before her father even knew
by profiling her purchases. Their data mining was so detailed and
intensive that they noticed that pregnant women began buying certain
vitamin supplements and things like unscented lotion. When they sent
coupons obviously targeted to pregnant women, the father was incensed
and complained to a Target manager that he felt they were trying to
encourage his daughter to get pregnant. On a subsequent contact, the
father told the Target manager that his daughter had already been
pregnant at the time and he wasn’t aware of it. That’s the power of
“metadata” that the government keeps telling us is not so important — at
the same time they are building massive storage capabilities to capture and analyze it (emphasis mine)
