I don't mind a person looking at it, they have a somewhat new store policy to always scan it into the system. It's invasive.

Invasive? Nothing on their is private. It is ALL public record.

Their system now knows every time you buy alcohol instead of a person simply verifying your age. It is not the same.

Then don't buy alcohol from there? Everywhere you go is going to check your ID. They will all have varying ways to do it. Scanning is a security check to make sure it's real. Speedway does it, and apparently so does the Krogers you go to aswell.

Hey we have this in the Northern Territory, Australia. And they can refuse to sell you alcohol under the banned drinkers legislation. But geez if u just want a nice wine to go with your meal, doesnt matter.. you must produce photo id and its scanned into the gov database to determine if u are allowed to buy. This is for every single person who wants to buy alcohol in the NT. Cigarettes just need photo id to prove age.

It’s definitely not a corporate policy then. The ones near me in Michigan don’t do it, they just do an age check.
