If the punishment for a crime doesn't outweigh the profits then it's just the cost of doing business. Wake me up when any of these rulings and fees actually discourage the multitude of mega corps from commiting shitty and criminal behavior.

But that might be harmfull to "The Economy"!! D:
I'm getting some Wells Fargo vibes here
lol... not that i'm an amazon "investor" or anything, but i think most, if not all, openly acknowledge that AWS is the only thing that actually makes money. this is a desperate attempt to make their "store front" look like it's not as big a loss leader than it really is, but either way... they'll get off paying the troll toll and continue on with business as usual. 🙄
It's often hard to outline exactly how much business the Bunnings sausage sizzle brings in.
Fuck Amazon. That company ticks all the evil corporation marks. Please don't use them
For a while it was hard to make an order without having a trail for Prime shoved in our faces. My little sister the first time she ordered off Amazon ended up getting billed for Prime and had to fight to get her money back. The FTC should be looking into them and every site that does similar.
I have absolutely been signed up to Prime inadvertently without knowing multiple times.
It's about time. My Amazon Echo signed me up for Prime because it didn't understand me when I said "No!". And guess what, you can't unsubscribe though the Amazon Echo. So I had to play that stupid maze game trying to find the "unsubscribe"/"do you really want to unsubscribe"/"are you sure" buttons on half a doesn't pages.
