What happens if Amazon decides to disable your account? Well, folks. This is no longer a "what if", but a "now what?!"
Sure, you can sue. But as many people here are pro-capitalist, they will assert a company's decision to fire users with absolutely no redress of the data that was decided upon. Personhood rights, and all that.
(No, I don't believe that companies should get personhood rights. And yes, I do believe that we people have the right to see what data they use to determine how they work with us, or not. The GDPR in Europe is a good start.)
Where does it leave everyone? Well, for these people, certainly not using Amazon AWS now. And I'm guessing that they can't even extract their data either.
Aren't automated system "Great" ?
