Please don't spread FUD. I'm not a huge fan of Ubuntu but be honest, its so-called telemetry drama from several years ago never required the command line to turn off, it was a switch in Unity's graphical settings app. Since that controversy it has always shipped opt-in, and non-Unity versions of Ubuntu never had the issue to start with. There are no Amazon "ads" apart from a link on the dock that is removed with a right-click, again no command line wizardry required.
Please don't lie.
- MichaelGG 9y agoThis is incorrect. Every time I click the Unity button, the first icon is Amazon. No way to remove it that I can see. Just Launch. Please step me through clicking the top right Unity button to see all apps, then removing Amazon via the UI only. The default in Ubuntu is to send crash reports: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Apport https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Apport
- morganvachon 9y agoIt's a .desktop file just like any other icon in Unity. It's at /usr/share/applications/ubuntu-amazon-default.desktop; right click, delete, just like you would any other .desktop file.
