That's a good point, #nz (and other Countries) have by percentage likely done much more #deforestation than #southamerica https://aardvark.co.nz/daily/2021/0715.s.. Apparently the #amazon #rainforest is now a net contributor to #carbon #emissions https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/.. It's entirely possible it's already too late to save the planet.

No idea what the hell is going on here...
Apparently #amazon are burnign through #employees at such a high rate, that they are worried about running out: https://www.businessinsider.com.au/amazo..
#amazon soon to switch off support for #bittorrent in their S3 #cloud #servers https://github.com/awsdocs/amazon-s3-use.. Some people are saying its been dead since 2016. Very annoying for those who use it.
Interesting to see #amazon 's selling practices exposed: https://mattstoller.substack.com/p/amazo.. They are doing price manipulation on a massive scale...
#amazon screwing over customers: https://fstoppers.com/news/amazon-refuse.. Add this to the #chinese #fakes where you are unable to buy legitimate brands, and other shady shit. You really expect more from such a company.
I'm in two minds about the #amazon #mesh https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2021/05/.. #amazonsidewalk should in general improve everybody's internet on average, but explaining to your #isp that you didn't #torrent movies on your #internet connection will become tougher. Also do you really trust Amazon not to sell your traffic data etc? I don't. And that adds to other problems, such as power usage and radio traffic. It's opt-out!
