    I bought a book from Amazon on 2007… Then I didn’t buy anything else from them afterwards, because… I didn’t need everythign else from them?

    Then this article came out (in 2011): https://www.wumingfoundation.com/giap/2011/09/feticismo-della-merce-digitale-e-sfruttamento-nascosto-i-casi-amazon-e-apple/ and I decided to delete my Amazon account.

    I don’t need to make up anything. Believe me or don’t believe me. I couldn’t care less.

      You did not buy anything from them for years because that just happened to be the case. You made it sound as if the reason were those working conditions, when they just made you delete the unused account years later. In other words: Not using something you already don’t use is not exactly amazing courage.

          You said you boycotted them ever since you learned of those working conditions, when in fact, you did just not buy anything from them to begin with. For years before those conditions became public.

          How is my reading comprehension 0?

            Does it really matter? You won the fight about thier specific use of words. Congratulations.

            Time to go home, soldier.

              It does absolutely not matter. But I don’t like people saying things that are incorrect.

                You’re a beardneck that feels the need to prove other people wrong by nitpicking what they say. Who are you to say what that person was doing in those time frames? How did they say anything that was incorrect, did you track them for those years?

                What if they were in a hospital during that time. Maybe they lost people they loved and didn’t buy anything online for years. Does that make them incorrect?

                You felt the need to argue with them for no reason, just to feel better about yourself. Go back to Reddit with that crap.

                  I did not nitpick, it took the whole post apart. Not just one sentence from 40. But even then, how would it matter if I only critizise a part? Maybe the rest is perfectly correct?

                  I do not need to track someone to know that something that went public years later can not make them do something several years prior.

                  I don’t care why they did not buy anything for years - it does not matter. They said they stopped for some reason when that reason did not exist at that point.

                  I feel the need to point out illogical things. Just like above this here now. People need to think about what they write before they publish it for the world to see.
