I wasn't. The problems inherent in digital purchasing need not wait for manifestation to begin discussions and preventative, activist legislation.
In addition, I love Amazon. I have been dealing with them for physical products for many years, and they have revolutionized what it means to be a global consumer, not bound to the whims of local supply/demand, or the greed of merchants without competition.
But, they are cooking in the same kitchen as Valve, Apple, etc, and thus are part of the discussion, regardless of the facts of this particular case.
