Palm payments sound futuristic until you realize Amazon now owns your vein map.
One breach, one subpoena, one partnership away from total ID tracking.
Break up Amazon. Protect your privacy.

Your hand is not a barcode.
Don’t give in to data colonization in exchange for “convenience”
Stop freely giving up your biometrics to AWS that controls half the web service and feeds its powerful AI.
Keep your life private and secure.

Internet also trains AI on human behavior.
This isn’t innovation, it’s data colonization.
Convenience has a cost: your autonomy.

Amazon is normalizing a world where your palm is your password.
The same hand you use to check into a hospital, buy groceries, or link your bank account feeds data into its AI empire on AWS.
“Convenience” isn’t progress it’s control.

I went to a hospital and was told to scan my palm to check in.
Not for fingerprints.
For Amazon One, Amazon’s biometric ID system.
Your vein map gets uploaded to Amazon’s cloud (AWS).
No media coverage. No public debate.
I refused and here’s why you should too.

You’ve seen Amazon One at Whole Foods, now it’s showing up at hospitals.
Same scanner. Same AWS database.
Your grocery checkout, your doctor’s office, your biometric ID, all running through one private company.
Still think it’s “just convenience”?

NYU Hospital is using Amazon One palm scans for patient check-in.
Your vein map, a biometric ID that can’t be changed, goes straight to Amazon’s cloud.
No media coverage. No public debate.
I refused, and so should you.

@nytimes.com #NYULangone Health kiosks now require a palm scan through #AmazonOne, providing no other way to verify your identity at their kiosks. You can request that a person check you in instead, but that info is not provided. This is an egregious privacy violation sold as "secure" verification.
Wow. NYU Langone is now asking their patients to join #AmazonOne so patients can check-in for doctors' visits using their palm print. You would have to trust Amazon to safeguard your palm print...
... to check-in for a medical appointment.
No thanks.
