Amazon saved children’s voices recorded by Alexa even after parents asked for it to be deleted. Now it’s paying a $25 million fine.::“For too long, Amazon has treated children’s sensitive data as its own property,” Josh Golin, executive director of Fairplay, said in a statement.
That fine should have to be 25 billion, not million. Then they’d actually learn a lesson.
That’s 0.0001x their 2022 profit or 0.01%. If I did my math correctly, it’s about 58 minutes of profit.
Fuck these corporate oligarchs.
This isn’t a “fine” to Amazon. 25 million dollars is just the cost of business.
Make this 250 or 500 million and then… Maybe… it’s a fine.
Fuck it. Hit them with a couple of billion and THEN companies might stop being shitheads to basic human rights.
