A Bay Area grocery chain is bringing in facial recognition technology to try to snare shoplifters — but regular customers are furious. The move is set to be deployed at some Grocery Outlet stores, concerning shoppers their privacy could be infringed upon. The Emeryville-based chain is using software called SAFR, and shoppers will be notified that facial recognition is being used to catch people suspected of shoplifting.
