The Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Denver is the first place Amazon’s palm-swiping technology will be used outside some of Amazon’s stores. Concertgoers at Red Rocks can sign up to connect their palm to a ticketing account by hovering their hand over a device; an Amazon account isn’t needed to use the device. Other venues plan to add the tech in the coming months; privacy experts have warned against companies using biometric data because of the risk of it being hacked or stolen.
