What DiapDealer said.
Amazon is fast replacing WalMart as the most
hated company in America, and
may already be there. I'm not going to say whether or not it is deserved; that would be a political opinion. I'm just saying, as a factual statement, that a boatload of people would love to find dirt about this company. Given that situation, I think Amazon's ability to deceive concerning a big privacy issue is less than it would be with another firm.
Could I be wrong? Sure. But not just about Amazon. For all I know, a computer guy at my public library, obsessed with keeping backups, has a record of every book I ever took out in his basement. Likely? No. Possible? Yep.
