New app Buycott uses barcodes to help consumers

A new app called Buycott allows users to scan barcodes and learn which companies are behind the products on supermarket shevles. The barcode’s secrets are now out of the bag, and Monsanto, George Soros, and the Koch brothers had better beware. A new mobile app allows supermarket shoppers to scan barcodes to determine whether a product’s maker is morally in step with their values.
