This is probably the thing that bothers me the most about this story. Every couple of weeks there's another post about "Google de-listed my app from the Play Store", etc, and the common thread tends to be that there's a wall of powerless drones that act as the interface between the tech giant and the "tenant" (developer or seller). Contact support with a complaint, they say that you violated some nebulous policy and they can't give you the details of the violation, and all the tenant can do is shout into the void or hope to make enough noise rising up the ranks here at HN that somebody with actual power takes notice.
So, it's chilling to see that Amazon has a system where you can pay a frankly astonishing amount for a "priority" rep, who you would think would have the power to actually get any issues addressed, and actually they're just as useless as the Tier 1 guy who read you the script about violating the terms of service.
