It's a two fold system. The LP is there to catch people, and deter them to an extent, however some stores don't even have patrolling LP if their cameras are good enough. However the deterrence is also on the employees learning proper procedures when it comes to aggressive customer service, keeping an eye on people, locking things up properly, putting those wraps on things ("It's chained together for some reason!?"), not giving in to annoying customers and just letting them walk off with locked up items, so forth. Wal-mart does not want to get stolen from though. They even do things like close the all of the doors except one set at night. All of those things customers frequently just whine about being inconvenient are done for a reason, to deter and catch shoplifters, to make their lives harder.

So this actually happened. Funimation sent cease and desist letters to fansubbers who were doing popular shows that are 100s of episodes ahead of America. Not saying that matters, but it becomes relevant. Funimation then was revealed to also be using those same translations as the basis for those scripts. As in there was a tour of their studio, someone took noticed in the background some oddly fancy subtitles on an episode being worked on, turned out it was a specific fansubbing group's subs. So even though Funimation didn't just copy and paste their script, or use their subtitles officially, they still based their English translation off the translation done by the fansubbers and that was legally wrong of them, correct?

This is an argument that comes up in the anime community a lot where "Well the company owns the rights to the show therefore they own the byproducts of the show" kind of thing. Or "It's their show it's your own fault". I can't replicate the logic, two wrongs don't make a right.

Walmart does things to prevent theft. Is something locked in a case? Is an employee aggressively bothering you to see if you need anything? Anti-theft tags on clothing. Spider-wraps on TVs and merchandise, small and stealable items in cases. Closing all of the doors except one at night. Teaching Employees to identify signs of theft in more customer service focused areas. Teaching cashiers to check inside baskets and under carts to make sure people aren't putting things inside of shoe boxes. Teaching the staff at the customer service desk to catch return fraud among other things. These are all pro-active policies that you just never notice and every large retail store does.

As someone who uses ad blocker if you are a trusted site who doesn't spam me with autoplay ads, popuprs, and all kinds of other intrusive things and has a friendly reminder on your page I'll disable adblocker+ myself.

Why is it that people steal from Walmart so often but not Target? It's the whole package that makes the data reliable, not just the data itself.

Was this ever answered?
