- ctvo 5y agoAnd we think they need to risk the lost of business of breaking into your data on AWS to get this information? They somehow have no other way to infer this? How much business is this thriving Amazon-made products line? It's a fraction of AWS's profits considering retail's overall profits.
- russh 5y agoPeople have done worse for less. It may not be a significant fraction of Amazon’s income but it could be a significant fraction of a sellers income or a significant fraction of sales manager’s sales.
- anotha1 5y ago> They somehow have no other way to infer this? That's actually the point. So what if they're using "anonymous" or other indirect data? If "Amazon.com" might be benefiting from AWS data of any kind then it needs to be investigated as potentially anti-competitive.
- ctvo 5y agoWhen I say infer I mean from analysis of retail trends, pricing, and supply data. They don’t need to raid your AWS account to know that USB cables are profitable.
