I was a eRetailer and I often lowered my prices accordingly to be more competitive than what was proposed by Amazon. I ended making the sale because someone did not buy at Amazon. Nobody forced me to raise prices at all. Amazon had no contr

Don't paint amazon subscribers as victims here. I am entirely satisfied of the time saved and the cost of Amazon products I buy. The yelling comes from the Amazon sellers side, not from the customers. There is plenty of competition for

I guess it is relevant to the "Amazon is an evil and monopolistic organisation" theme. Maybe not relevant for the lawsuit specified in the report, they are certainly entitled to sue for any reason. But the classic theme still show

That's just far from being a monopoly. I subscribe to Amazon because I've always got an excellent service. I also buy on Ebay, Craglist, Walmart and diverse retailers that are entering the eCommerce game. The thing here is that ma

And yet, people still vote for the same kind of politicians. I don't blame the execs, I would have done the same.

I don't support that kind of surveillance. That said, are they really in illegality ? Can I buy this type of localization data as a private individual ? If so, then they don't need a warrant, am I right ?
