Most supermarkets in the UK now have cameras at the till, so if you pay cash, they still know it is you.

If you are referring to NCR self checkout cameras. This is generally NCR SmartAssist and NCR ScanItAll which is for shrink and employee theft rather than mass identification. I only know of ASDA near me that has this implementation.

Overton window is moving. If they are not doing mass identification now, they will in a couple of years.
