  Those people are wrong. It's maybe early yet to talk about what Bezos is going to do with his fortune; Amazon isn't all-grown-up yet. It's still possible he's going to go in the Gates direction, and I think it's much to early to say he's going in Ellison's direction. But that doesn't make everything we like him doing an act of philanthropy.

  Not every business venture that benefits the world (if it works out) gets to be called "philanthropy."
