The Briefing Headlines March 11

Your supermarket is spying on you

Wednesday Headlines: 
Iranian women footballers defected to Australia last night
US warn today will be the most intense so far in Iran
Nationals to choose new leader after Littleproud’s shock resignation
Lululemon cops $700k + fine for spam emails
Australia’s favourite toilet paper revealed

Deep Dive: Digital price tags that can change instantly, smart trolleys that track what goes in your basket and cameras that are monitoring more than just shelves.  

The modern supermarket is evolving quickly as major chains invest heavily in automation, AI and data-driven systems designed to make shopping faster and more efficient. But while many of these changes promise convenience for customers, they also raise important questions about privacy, pricing and the growing power of Australia’s supermarket giants. 

In this episode of The Briefing, Sacha Barbour Gatt and Chris Spyrou dig into some of the tech quietly reshaping our supermarket aisles and what it could mean for the future of shopping.
