Sonofabitch...I'm not seeing ANY news of this posted anywhere, and that should tell you that the billionaires already have absolute control over what propaganda we're exposed to.

What’s concerning though: Amazon’s “new favorite child” is its health tech business. The last thing we need is more privatization and tech companies distracting us from what matters in healthcare.

So, Amazon thinks my novella paperback content is stolen from my ebook content, and I have been unable to resolve the issue.
They are now telling me they are closing my author account. The whole experience with them has been traumatic.
If you want to read my work, it's available from other vendors, and I plan to go back to hand-selling my smaller stuff. I was happier that way, honestly.
Amazon Marketplace is harmful, episode 362
On the other hand these Amazon-contracted sub-postpersons aren’t trusted with the postal key, a sesame to access mailboxes and package rooms in residential buildings throughout the city of New York.
In my building, this leads to Amazon packages being left in the hall, and apparently there has been enough package theft reports that the management company had to put up signs urging Amazon delivery people not to leave them the hall, but I believe they are paid way too low (as sub-postpersons) to comply with these rules that wouldn’t be needed if people didn’t order on Amazon in the first place.
CQFD.

Another good reason to ditch Amazon specifically.
My reply: "I have thought about joining Amazon and I concluded that it would go about every single moral value I hold so I'll pass, thanks."
