No company stores more data than Amazon, the former online bookseller. Amazon boss Jeff Bezos has become the richest man in the world. Every second Euro in online trading is spent at Amazon. Is the IT giant, with its unabated growth, about to turn our economic system upside down?
Amazon is a machine that can simultaneously observe, compare and analyze more than 300 million people worldwide. The company is not just a marketplace, market supervisor and provider of more and more services and consumer items – it also controls all the data streams in this market and uses them to its own benefit. Who suspects that a single click on an Amazon page will forward information to the company that fills a printed DIN-A-4 page? A conversation with Alexa, watching a streaming offer on Amazon-Prime, ordering vegetables via Amazon-Fresh – all this put together creates a whole library of information about every customer. The group collects everything – it just won’t reveal what conclusions it draws from it. What would be possible if data from other, new business areas were added? In the USA, Amazon is also active in the health and insurance sectors, and police officers are using its facial recognition software to search for wanted persons.

Action and reaction. Less jobs. More Meth dealers. Happy Now
People worry way to much. As long as we have the Right to own firearms. We Got This lol. Yeah I said it
Bought Ebike kit on EBay Amazon would cost AT LEAST DOUBLE. since then I have bought straight from manufacturer. CHEAPER THAN AMAZON. Learn how to shop
I call this Bull! I have registered my child and my car with my Amazon profile. Still get shitty and wrong recommendations. Had to send back so many stuff as they were incompatible.
Disgusting
the information about you belongs to commerce. making a product that no one will buy became too dear. the producer must know what you will buy. i love amazon knowing everything about me. i receive fantastic offers. life has been easier with bezos. all hail!
Now Amazon has a cloud platform called AWS(Amazon Work Space) to take place of Citrix. The AWS is not a mature ptoduct. AWS is incapable to communicate with your local device (unlike Citrix) or the existing other app(such as SAS, a statistical analyses software). AWS is cheap, and it is taking over the IT market, and becoming the enemy of the consumers.
How about Amazon drones drop food off to hungry people.
Messed up
We are living in an Amazon world

3:45 probably the first time I have seen anyone actually seriously interviewing a tin can with speakers.
Never of his business
I love Amazon but, Um…No THANKS!!

This is scary.
Amazon and Google both have massive contracts to hold and handle government data.
Never fear, there is no way that any side of the equation would 'peek' at your info to build better dossiers on you.
Its scary to think that software might tell us how to live and we not even notice.
I’ve never ordered Amazon and I’m 46. I’m pretty sure I’ll live without Amazon for the rest of my life
Amazon understand they’re coming up against the new age of generation. There is a generation out there that understands that this type of thing is happening and they are fighting against it and buying local local by local
If you walk into the store to buy your groceries why is the world do you need an app
