If you are featured in the media for being a member of a political party or union, for example, people could recognize you. The cashier could be given directions by the management not to serve Mr. So-and-so from the TV.

They could just look at the credit card number, and observe that 7305 matches a blacklist.

They could use facial recognition in the checkout to check against a database and deny you service that way.

And so on, and so forth. There is no need to be hated by ordinary folks, just that the upper management/media doesn't like you.

What is the solution to this? Never adopting any objectionable views?
