Before going to the store to pick up some menstrual products for my partner, I shave and put on a full face of makeup so the cameras read me as female and don't give me the "clueless man" price gouge.
Imagine walking up to the products and watching the price go up. This will probably end in a lawsuit. Grab a product at x price and when you scan it it's y price. They can justify that in court, I don't care how business friendly the system is it's going to be struck down.
Well let's be clear about the tech they use. It's too slow to dynamically change based on who is shopping. The labels typically use eReader type displays which only update periodically for price updates. Need a 2450 cell battery that can last about 6 months with a single price change a week. Changing the prices more often drastically drains the battery life. And they require constant vigilance to make sure they haven't just randomly turned themselves off (seriously sometimes they randomly forget what price they should be showing).
I guess what I'm saying is if you want to ruin one of these stores those labels are expensive as fuck so bring a small jewelry kits and destroy as many as you can to fucking ruin a stores bottom line because no way in hell head office will approve sending out another thousand labels so they'll be forced to go back to paper labels.
They definitely have insurance and also you'll wind up in jail, so this seems like bad advice
Like with all theft and commerical sabotage don't get caught.
Would a high powered magnet fuck them like they do credit cards or hard drives?
I think you'd need a magnet strong enough to fuck up a kindle screen which I don't know if you can find those. Honestly you could just pop them off with a screw driver and take them. Or take the battery out and leave the shell the battery is the expensive part.
