They seem to do this every Black Friday and prime day, has it had any impact yet? I barely use Amazon as is so I’m already boycotting most of the year. I do pay money into twitch though so they get my $ from my turbo subscription
Impact? Probably Amazon will replace their workers with robots

Well they were always going to do that if it resulted in more labour per dollar anyway
