| Amazon accuses customer of racism & shuts down their smart home! |

For those who don't have time to watch the video. An Amazon customer had something delivered to their house. They weren't home and their delivery driver misinterpreted the automatic doorbell's pre-recorded message as a racial slur. He complained to his boss and Amazon shutdown the customer's account, just like that! This is mental. Eliminate this crap from your house. |

how much Stockholm syndrome does someone need to have to only "seriously consider" dropping Amazon after being treated like that? |
| Infraviolet:
Another example of why one should never rely on cloud anything. And why the corporate/governmental complex* need to stop playing judge and simply provide plain services to any customer who wants to pay, see also: google shutting down an account when someone needed to transfer nude medical images of their family to a doctor, paypal suspending the acounts of free speech groups, trudeau freezing truckers bank accounts for peaceful protest, a new york shopping centre banning access to anyone tangentially associated with a law firm they didn't like, and not to mention the horrors of social credit systems and central bank digital currencies being proposed... *far too many revoloving doors of managerial types transferring back and forth between government bodies and corporate ones, and all the while advancing the general "agenda" of busy-bodies intent on controlling everything in to neat bureaucratically ticked boxes. |

The irony is all the lip service Amazon gives about being "customer obsessed". I hope he sues them over this, and contacts all the local news media with his story. |

Hilarious. :-DD We still have some choice, but question is, at what point will we stop having choice and ALL companies will be infected by this? The "reassuring" part is that many companies that have taken this woke path (ESG crap) to an extreme have faced backlash (like Netflix, Disney, Paypal...) So what's the future of Amazon? Bets are open. |
