    I assume that person is simply making it up. They did not learn about the working conditions in ~2007. I assume the first articles about that came many years later. Google seems to have removed the custom date range, so I can’t check. Feels like that came up around 2015. wiki names 2011

      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?

      You need to switch to desktop mode.
