Amazon's modifications mirror similar actions taken by other major companies after Trump’s election victory, including Meta, McDonald’s, and Walmart

I have one outstanding order that is already out for delivery. Once I get that, I’m closing my amazon account. I’m done. Buy nothing. Vote with your wallet. Edit: account is closed. get bent Bozos.

    Unfortunately, you are still making money for companies that then pay AWS with the money you give them. Not saying you shouldn’t do what you’re doing, but it’s basically impossible to escape Amazon entirely and use the internet now.

    Every little bit helps though.

      AWS

      Yeah. I remember when the net was still pretty open with lots of small players still - and lots of giants trying to achieve dominance. Something like Netflix seems pretty cool until you don’t want to give Bezos money and find out that Netflix runs on AWS. Not sure about other streaming services.

      I honestly don’t know what sites and services would work if AWS and a few other things (Akamai, Cloudflare) were cut out of the picture.
