This is the beginning of the end for privacy and anonymity in making purchases.

Look at this quote from the article:
"We're very close in countries around the world. If you go in to Hong Kong or Singapore, the low-value transactions have already disappeared. You can't go anywhere, like on public transport, without pre-purchasing a card.
