1. A seller rents some storage space from a landlord to store the products he wants to sell
2. He uses a cloud provider to set up his website for customers to shop
3. He also uses a payment processor to process customers' orders
4. He then uses a shipper to ship them
In this case, should the landlord/cloud provider/payment processor/shipper be liable for defective products that the seller sells? There's a plethora of companies that play one or more aforementioned role(s), and it so happens that Amazon assumes all of them.

- mikeash 8y agoSorry, you probably caught my post before I added the "not" I managed to miss the first time around. I meant to say that I see why Amazon should not be liable, but they should at least be able to get you to the right people.
