There's that, but I'm sure they'd have lawyers work out some sort of indemnification. The first media reports would need careful PR handling.

I see this as something similar to what AirBnB went through. It's not unprecedented.

AirBnB is miniscule compared to Wal-Mart, though. Not even a blip.

The ambulance chasers would be all over this.

Not to mention widespread fraud. It's just a dumb idea.
