You are scared because you are being tracked in a theme park that Disney controls... Odd type of paranoia.

They've been tracking people for years (I grew up going to Disneyland and my sister worked there), with cameras, so this is nothing new -- it's just updated technology.

Personally, I think it's cool and interesting.

In a way, it's mainly just creepy. Five years ago none of this was happening in such a digitized fashion. It's not stopping me from going back again. Outside of Disney I typically don't eat the same type of foods or drink the same things. Some of it was just a little unsettling, especially thinking about my daughter.

I don't think Disney cares about what you eat or drink outside of the park. They care about how you and others behave when you're spending money on their property. I don't think it's any creepier than when a store tracks your buying habits, which many stores do these days.

true... they don't care about you... they're capitalists, focusing on business. They're a corporation focusing on ROI. If only a company would focus on the government, or needy so well.

Magical 1984!
