Amazon trying to cover their ass?

Updated Wednesday, September 4, 2024 5:10 p.m. EST - Amazon reached out to deny the reports of a crack down on singing along with the radio in trucks and provided this PR video clip as evidence. A PR spokesperson told Jalopnik: “This post is completely inaccurate. Amazon has never issued guidance or communications to Delivery Service Partners that prohibits singing in the vehicle.”

    Instantly buying Amazon’s denial of shit that it was proven they were trying to do does equal endorsement XP you should stop wasting time defending corporations who literally only give a shit about you for your money and data

      Instantly buying up random unfounded rumors makes you fucking stupid. Instantly buying Amazon’s denial to a claim with zero evidence makes me not stupid. You can keep the added color. I won’t be bullied into believe baseless facts.

      Until another article comes out with some evidence, I’ll keep my pitchfork right where it is.

              Maybe later. For now focus on that revenge of the sith in a Scottish accent opening scroll. I was really looking forward to that.

                  No that’s far too short - the opening scroll is a good page or so of text. You got this - doesn’t have to be perfect, just do your best.

                    Dude, just admit you were wrong instead of breaking down like a child who keeps parroting back what the other is saying. You can do this, you can become a better version of yourself. Being stupid is a choice and rejecting that notion starts with you facing facts.

          You realize you’re just one predictable reaction after another right? The whole unquestionable outrage followed by the hot meme trend…do you ever originate an original thought?

          Btw, the system in place is looking for other distracting behaviors that aren’t singing but singing happens to trigger it: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41449305
