Interesting, I can't verify this though

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 10 points 8 months ago (1 children)

How do you expect to verify it? Are the quotes directly from Amazon PR in that article somehow insufficient?

[–] Micromot@feddit.de 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

That's not what I 'm saying, I do believe you but it is not something I would tell someone else as a fact, knowing amazon it is very probable though

But ... it's a fact. It's documented. Amazon literally said they did it.

Alright, must have misread something, sorry
