“At your next book club meeting, picture me sitting quietly in the corner, taking notes on your preferences. Imagine the next day you get an email from me trying to sell you a new grill — or a book — or accessories for your Glock. That's the Amazon/Goodreads deal. It's appalling. But everywhere in the press, you'll read about the genius of Amazon."

“During the shopping process, Amazon’s AI offers suggestions of items that it predicts you will want to buy. The AI does a reasonable job. However, it is far from perfect. In our case, the AI accurately predicts what we want to buy about 5 percent of the time. We actually purchase about one of every twenty items it recommends. Considering the millions of items on offer, that’s not bad!”

“Technological change is discontinuous. The monks in their scriptoria did not invent the printing press, horse breeders did not invent the motorcar, and the music industry did not invent the iPod or launch iTunes. Early in the new century book publishers, confined within their history and outflanked by unencumbered digital innovators, missed yet another critical opportunity, seized once again by Amazon, this time to build their own universal digital catalog, serving e-book users directly and on their own terms while collecting the names, e-mail addresses, and preferences of their customers. This strategic error will have large consequences.”
― Jason Epstein

“I warung, spiegasti, sono come i nostri chioschi in Grecia, che vendono a buon mercato qualsiasi cosa, da bevande, penne e giornali, a shampoo, aspirine e servizi telefonici.
Ti potrebbe sorprendere sentire che la Bukalapak, un’azienda cloudalista indonesiana, sta rilevando oltre tre milioni e mezzo di warung, digitalizzando i loro servizi con l’obiettivo non solo di trasferire sul cloud i loro multiformi mercati locali, ma anche di finanziarizzare le comunità locali che dipendono da loro attraverso microcrediti usurari, costosi trasferimenti di contanti digitali e servizi bancari di base. Mai troppo lento a capire, Jeff Bezos ha inviato la Jeff Bezos Expeditions in Indonesia e nel 2021 ha iniziato a investire in un concorrente della Bukalapak.”

“When you spend money on something, the transaction is about more than you exchanging your money for some goods or service. That money is also a de facto endorsement of the business you're giving it to. By giving money to a business, like it or not, you're telling that business that you approve of the way they do things. One way to resist Amazon, other than (of course) not buying things from them, is to instead give money to businesses whose practices are better than Amazon. A bit of research can help you find businesses with unionized workers, businesses with high wages, employee-owned businesses, and businesses who work to reduce their impact on the environment. This is a form of advocacy you can enact every day.”
― Danny Caine, How to Resist Amazon and Why
