No, none of this shit. Amazon already has far too much soft power over small companies that user Amazon for ordering and shipping. Now they are trying to gain that power over small companies that don't use Amazon.

We need to give Amazon the rainforest treatment.

Agreed.

I was glad when they dropped saving stuff from other sites in your list.

Part of me wonders if they're inadvertently exposing themselves to some...targeted fuckery...with this. To be more specific, I mean fraud that hurts their bottom line 😀

While the Mouse is still the most dreaded legal team on the planet, I'm confident that Amazon has one that shows up in the top ten.

Yeah, fair, don't make some free bucks if you're in a country where punishment is likely!

Didn't they have this years ago, then drop it?
