It may come as a surprise, but I have used Amazon. Both on a professional and personal basis! (I say this tongue in cheek). I know businesses that depend on Amazon.com as a primary sales channel were affected, but they don't pay Amazon to sell their product (maybe Pro merchants are the exception). I think they owe us Prime members an outage report even more on that basis. In any case, I think it would be a good idea for them to write an incident report, but don't think it's comparable. edit: I give. Like I said, I think it's different than AWS/GCP outages, but I think your point is great and I think it's a good idea they pubish a report on it. Look forward to seeing it someday.

> but they don't pay Amazon to sell their product They certainly do. As with AWS, there are various services offered, each with their own pricing structure. * Payment mechanism (Amazon Pay) * E-commerce interface (Sell on Amazon) * Services marketplace (Selling Services on Amazon) * Advertising (Advertise on Amazon) * Warehouse/logistics provider (Fulfillment by Amazon) Amazon, eBay, or your own ecommerce website problems can cost exactly as much business as AWS, GCP, or your own data center problems. https://services.amazon.com/ https://services.amazon.com/
