I hope everyone has added this to their file about Jeff Bezos
Amazon founder Jeff Bezos had Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell attend his private, invitation-only, weekend at a resort he rented out. Bezos also has numerous private dinners with Epstein. They were good friends.
Ah good. He was in goods with the secret police that’s two thousand or so years old that’s described in the New Testament at an eighth grade reading level, that is a good thing, and I am glad. For additional clarification, I want to make sure that you have understood that I have called out the farce of the police state that is using my still-living and very real bud Jeff’s reputation as a scaffold for thems child hooker things and trafficking and the like, but y’know, we all know how engrossed you are in that nine-figure industry as you are, cardboardboxfort. We see your search history over here in Quantico, or wherever tf you think I am.
This post smells like toast
Do you smell popcorn?
Fuck off, you buy one marital aid and you get this shit
I just checked mine. It says “probably has a dog”, “probably has workshop”, “probably has outdoor space”, prefers organic, and I have 6 hobbies. Gardening, backpacking, mountaineering, swimming, professional jewelry making and painting lol. I’m adhd. I’m not a mountaineer I just had to buy ice axes and microspikes last minute for a backpacking trip because the snow didn’t melt before our permit date. I mean we did scale mountains in the snow so I guess im a mountaineer now. I try to buy as little as possible from Amazon.
Okay?
Mine was empty, i am kinda glad about it, it means they did not have enough info about me, not even by brokers Btw, i added
Everyone getting mad that they made a profile about you, but nobody acknowledging that you can edit the info and make them believe crazy things about you.
Shortly after the Amazon suggestions:
this is the way. there is claude skill designed for that kind of shenanigans.
You could also, like… type.
As a normal person, huh?
dunno
Can I speak to the claude directly?
define “directly”?
Heh. Just logged in to my Amazon account (which I seldom use) and it’s got nothing on me… which is JUST how I like it! Guess ticking all the privacy and security settings and using ad-blockers and a super edited hosts file (Dan Pollock’s - for decades now…) and using throwaway email accounts for all of this shit is working!
Niiiice.
How do you get to this page
Go to account>account settings>about you
You guys have Slavery – The Company accounts?
This!!!
Fully erase and delete that shit immediatly!
I was just looking at mine today. Systematically?
Sorta thought this thread would be full of people saying “I dont even have an Amazon account”. Makes me sad.
Honestly I wish I didn’t. I don’t have a google account. Don’t have any Meta accounts. Don’t have accounts for basically anything I’m not functionally REQUIRED to have (banking for example). But Amazon is hard to avoid. I do a lot of buying in person, but in person shopping is just horrible these days. You need to find something specific and you are screwed. I do try to find other places online to get something when I can but a lot of times I just have to fall back to amazon. Maybe part of it is just the area I’m in though. Tons of the more specialty stores here have closed down. We don’t even have an electronics store anymore after Best Buy closed.
You can order all those things online not from amazon, even if you wanna use amazon to find them you can just go to the merchants website and order from them. I quit amazon prime like five years ago, i get not having local options but just order online from the actual retailer.
I’ve had the privilege to live in economically robust (relatively speaking lol) environments, which has helped a lot in my mission to avoid them. I’ve been able to do it but I’ve also been lucky. Keep the fire alive, keep searching for alternatives. But damn do I feel for your situation, not even having a basic electronics type store is pretty rough.
Well there’s a walmart that has electronics stuff but at that point you may as well just buy from Amazon anyway lmao
There is always Newegg or B&H.
I’ve used Newegg but never heard of B&H what is that? Newegg is good for PC parts but not really for other things. Like RV electronics for example. Altho you can find some of that on other sites too. I do try to diversify when I can and not support the monopoly. One of the main issues I’ve found is just shipping. Even if you can find something somewhere else sometimes it’ll take a month to get there, or it’s out of stock, or something like that. Especially more recently. I even had something happen one time where I tried to buy from LattePanda on their site and my bank BLOCKED the transaction and wouldn’t let me buy from them directly because they were an “untrusted” vendor lol. But I was allowed to buy the exact same thing 2nd hand from Amazon.
Yeahhh they’re nearly on the same level. Treatment of workers is roughly on par, I just haven’t heard of a Walton-Epstein connection (yet). But yeah fuck the Waltons lol
I had it from a few years ago since i quit prime and my about me says they don’t have info on me so that’s good for me
I’ve never felt any need to have an Amazon account, there you go. Never bought anything for them or even found anything that I wanted to buy from them.
It helps that they were so late to market in NZ that they still aren’t really that commonly used here. There’s better local alternatives which cost less
I do use AWS for work though (but we’re gradually shifting off them, there’s way cheaper alternatives these days)
I have one collecting dust. I could delete it but it never gets used and they’ll profile me anyway. Last purchase was in February 2020. I’ve always hated amazon because of where I grew up and other reasons, but seeing how warehouse workers were treated during the pandemic was the tipping point for me. Convenience is like a drug, and going cold turkey was pretty fucking hard honestly. But it’s become easier over time. I will never give another red fucking cent to Borzo.
I completely degoogled and the one I had had was tied to that google account. Deamazoned as a consequence.
I don’t got one but in the off chance I can only find it on amazon, I use another person’s account
amazon is backbone service of the internet dude.
they let you on AWS servers even if you’re not signed into Prime lmao
For now…
Is there a way to see what companies use AWS?
No. Only way to not use AWS is to not use the internet at all.
It’s like saying how to use the internet without Akami or Cloudflare… you aren’t in 2026.
Are we using it right now by communicating on lemmy?
It is not quite that extreme as they only have 30% of the global market. Your sentiment is correct though.
Yeah, so what’s your point dude?
I haven’t even got that page on the UK site. Looking at things they recommend I buy, I see the usual collection of things I bought once years ago, and completely random shit that I’d never be interested in in a million years. All that data collected, for what? How these people are worth trillions I’ll never know.
Funny that it knows this, yet chooses to ignore it.
I am proud of my Beyblade collection, lol.
I wanna see your beyblade collection
The one that got me was “probably has a husband who doesn’t like lotion”
I always figured Amazon knew the most about me because what you buy probably says more about you than what you search. Like Google may think I’m a raving lunatic but Amazon knows I am a householder and what I use. So I was honestly pretty relieved most of it was very general except that oddball example above.
I’ve gone through and deleted everything as a matter of principle.
