Yes it is. Without the internet, we wouldn't be discussing it.
Nobody's doing a deep drive on the scruples of the people they buy their pizza from. They don't have a morality checklist they use to vet the vendors in the stalls of their local farmer's market before buying. So I fail to lend much credence to those who crusade against multi-national corporations because BIG! I guarantee you're happily handing your hard earned money to wife-beaters, child-molesters, tax evaders and general law-breakers every day. So why should I trust your opinion of Amazon's evilness?
And again... the notion that "you're the product" is not inherently abhorrent to me and many. I (and many others) are getting value out of the arrangement. You're not shining a light in the darkness. You're beating a dead horse.
