Interestingly, amazon.feedback redirects to amazon.com, so Amazon did pay

  Or threatened to sue them into a smoking hole in the ground..

    Amazon makes that money in about 6 seconds. I don't think they would even bother to threaten them, but that's just my opinion. Maybe that's the motivation behind the scam as well?

      You did the math, seemed small to me but that's how many seconds it takes to make 600 , assuming ~900 mil profit per quarter.

      Maybe because it is less hassle than getting a purchase order authorised.

      Well, lawyers got to earn their pay...
  • blazespin 9y ago
    Yeah, this is way more likely than paying 600. Amazon lawyers are a very very brutish sort. I've worked with them. Another possibility is that the site is trying to give the impression big companies are paying so when they go after small fry it'll go easier on them.

    They could always switch it to feedback about the river.
    • borplk 9y ago
      I think Amazon could probably still "get them" by putting them through legal costs.
• phireal 9y ago
  Or they buy every amazon.$TLD before anyone else does.

  Com Laude, a company that "manages domain name portfolios for brand owners", paid and Amazon presumably paid Com Laude for their services. Source: whois & it's hosted on a CL server

  Amazon seems to have semi-embraced the new GTLDs; http://amazon.horse http://amazon.horse and many others redirect to appropriate sections and products on Amazon.com.
