If their model is really to displace bodegas and other small corner stores, which are often run by local ethnic minorities in large cities, with a network of "smart cabinets" that feed money back into a single corp run by two ex-Google guys I think "gentrification" is at least not inaccurate
That progress is not stoppable . Same like supermarkets who at one time took away most small business owners like bakers/butchers and so on.
