RE: Amazon Employees Revolt Against Company Collaborating with Police, ICE, and DHS
Providing servers to the government isn't that big of a deal. Amazon does that for many people. Them not taking a moral stance against what the government is doing doesn't really mean anything. Expecting a company to take a moral stance against something is downright stupid.
Companies are immoral. As in without morals. They are not people. Of course, they are made up of tons of people, but the reason they're formed is for the people to avoid consequences. They're just signing their piece of paper, and letting the monster's gears continue to move.
So a bit ass company is letting a government do things that it wants to do. Because companies are basically psychotic, you have to make it in their best interest to do whatever it is that you want or don't want them to do. I can only hope that this is enough to make Amazon think that going against the government's evil plans is in it's best interest.
The main problem is the government. Like WTF! They're becoming like the evil villain in one of the most boring books ever. It's like War and Peace level boring as fuck. We need to fucking do something. Yet, what do we do? We have to get some old boring fucks to actually start doing their fucking jobs.
Yeah, I mean any time you have an overbloated govt, you will have companies and individuals taking advantage and reaping the benefits of tax dollars. The resistance worked at Google, so hoping there can be a similar effect here.
