Amazon, the world’s largest retailer of electronic goods, just introduced new technology that makes it much simpler to sign up for its palm-scanner pay service, raising fresh concerns among privateness experts.

Amazon announced on March 28 that it had just introduced a new app that allows first-time users of its Amazon One biological pay service to sign up for it from the convenience of their home ( as opposed to a real business ) by taking a picture of a finger and uploading it to Amazon’s machines.
