I think Linux went mainstream when the default installation of one of the distributions came with an icon that opened up "Amazon.com"

  Color me ignorant, but which distribution is that?

    coughubuntucough IIRC, they recently discontinued the link and related data sharing though.

      It was always possible to uninstall it. Just a nuisance that you have to, while clearly no users ever desired it. It was also terrible that all search requests went plaintext to Amazon.

    Ubuntu did some years ago; it did cause some uproar. Just search for "Ubuntu Amazon"
