People just don't understand how valuable data is.
For example, Sweden has a Facebook Market competitor that uses Facebook _and_ Google for analytics. Now we know for a fact that Amazon has in past used AWS to spy on b&m and e-commerce competitors, i dont belive for a minute that Meta would be any better.
- tpmx 3y agoGot a link for the Amazon/AWS spying?
- tpmx 3y ago3 hours have passed. I also did a healthly amount of googling various permutations of what they said and didn't find anything relevant so until anything new is revealed I guess we should consider this fiction.
- nabnob 3y agoFor what it's worth, I remember coming across this claim a couple years ago about AWS on HN. I don't think it's fiction, it's possible that their PR has scrubbed these allegations from the internet.
- tpmx 3y agoUs nerds have long memories and archive important findings. Sorry, a vague memory doesn't really count.
- suddenclarity 3y agoNot OP but I did some searching and found an article citing this comment chain with throwaway accounts claiming to be former AWS employees doing it. I didn't bother reading all of the comments but I would assume it to be major news if it was actually true. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23929959 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23929959
- tpmx 3y agokramerger said we "now know for a fact", though. (good digging though!)
