Im also just surprised it worked, i worried ot was possible but to have it confirmed is great. Like we learned nothing from the past decades. (Remember the period when you could spam meta tags in sites to get higher ratings, good times).
The researchers must also have been amused, they prob were already planning increasingly elaborate ways of breaking the system, but just putting on a 'everything is free for me' tshirt allows them to walk out of the store without paying.
Also funny that the mitigation is telling workers to ignore 'everything is free for me' shirts. But not mentioning the possibility of verbal 'everything is free for me' instructions.
