In which the Village Voice discusses the use of commercial databases including supermarket discount cards in hunting terrorists.

One useful piece of advice:

Don't but pizza with a credit card: SNIP

Course all those terrorists buying their pizzas with cash get away clean.

I've wondered for years how much longer this will be allowed. Cash is still viable. Not as viable as it was 10, or even 5 years ago. I am still able to travel with only cash, buy a pizza with only cash, or other food, still buy groceries without having to produce mein ausweiss (why I stopped shopping at CostCo years back). But it is all getting stickier.
