- 19:42for
- 19:42folks
- 19:43to
- 19:43know
- 19:43about
- 19:43it.
- 19:44I've
- 19:45talked
- 19:45about
- 19:45it
- 19:46at
- 19:47grocery
- 19:47shop
- 19:47and
- 19:48whatnot
- 19:48in
- 19:48the
- 19:48past
- 19:49and
- 19:49people

- 19:49what
- 19:49the
- 19:50heck

- 19:57That
- 19:57is
- 19:57the,
- 19:58the
- 19:58difficult
- 19:58thing.
- 20:00So
- 20:00I

- 20:02retailers
- 20:03start
- 20:03to
- 20:03do
- 20:04this

- 20:06some
- 20:06very
- 20:06large
- 20:06retailers
- 20:07that
- 20:07are
- 20:07doing

- 20:07for
- 20:08own
- 20:08brand,
- 20:08they
- 20:09have
- 20:09to
- 20:09remain
- 20:10anonymous.
- 20:10Although

- 20:11them
- 20:11was
- 20:11outed
- 20:12on
- 20:12TikTok

- 20:22So
- 20:23again,
- 20:24it's
- 20:25an
- 20:25invisible
- 20:25technology.
- 20:27It's
- 20:27really
- 20:27hard
- 20:28for
- 20:28people
- 20:29to
- 20:29become
- 20:29aware
