I don't know anything about the details of Amazon's policy in this instance or the specifics of what happened, but strictly going on what you wrote, I'm not sure that this tragic outcome necessarily means the decision was bad. There are multiple ways of looking at any decision: perhaps, for example, employees with cellphones were more distracted and thus more prone to accidents. My eleven-year-old daughter has no cellphone because we don't think being connected at her age is good for her (she also seems indifferent to having one, unlike my son, who is all about being connected). We also let her walk home from school on her own, and have for a couple of years now, because we believe she should be independent. I can imagine (although I try not to) situations in which those two decisions interplay and lead to a bad outcome, but I still think they are the right decisions for her.
