💨 Abstract

Sainsbury's has introduced self-service checkouts with VAR-style replay cameras to combat rising shoplifting rates. The cameras playback video clips where customers failed to scan items properly, causing backlash on social media with some calling for a boycott. The measure is part of a broader effort by supermarkets to combat crime, which cost retailers £4.2 billion last year.
