It's not clear you're actually buying any privacy. The cameras they have in stores will be used for tracking customers soon anyway, and not having a tracking identifier associated with your transactions make you stick out like a sore thumb.

camera tracking is illegal in many places, and while my shopping may stick out, it still can't easily be tied to my identity. i only pay with cash too. the only place where i use cards is on ATMs.
