RadioShack Stops Being Nosy

jackbang writes "One small but positive step in the gradual erosion of personal privacy and increase of corporate intrusiveness - RadioShack will no longer ask for your name and address when all you want to do is buy some batteries. Now if only they would agree to remove the motion sensor that rings a bell every time someone walks in or out of the store..." Always freaked me out being asked my address just to buy some solder or something.

    *r*adio *s*hack always sucked anyway. Will they ever go out of business?! Please help them out and don't buy anything from them. Digikey is the way to go if you want anything and fast service!
