An inside look at how Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos built one of the largest and most influential economic forces in the world — and the cost of Amazon’s convenience …
They dont do 2 days for hawaii. If they really wanted to they cud expedite and do at least 3 days shipping for those of us prime members living on the islands. It is possible but try as I may they wont budge
What happens when people are wrongfully put on watch lists, does Amazon inspect their packages and contents for the U.S. government in secret? I mean… if Amazon is already working with police departments by sending facial recognition data to the police for a fee, then why wouldn't they also be up for package monitoring services? Unlike a brick and mortar store you have control over what you buy, but when you order from an online retailer anything could happen to that package from point A to point B. This is a privacy issue that I have yet to hear anyone address in any serious manner. This is a legal issue no different than mail tampering or fraud but I don't think e-commerce parcels receive those same kinds of protections. I'm quite surprised something with such wide and far reaching consequences for consumer privacy has yet to receive even the most basic amount of attention.
It never ceases to amaze me how in an age where everyone is so worried about privacy, millions of people will voluntarily buy devices that are perpetual hot mics. Don’t blame Amazon, this is your stupidity.
1:25:50, Of course, you have a different view, you think the police are all honest. Well, news flash buddy they are corrupt as they come. Power tripping freaks, Violation of the 4th amendment!
Amazon and people’s insatiable need to have things RIGHT NOW is absolutely terrible. The number of packages is ungodly and you are on a constant time crunch to try and get them out. It’s ridiculous.
Kickback has a specific criminal law meaning, it’s not price negotiations. Over 80% of US workers are not unionized. Ominous music isn’t evidence of wrong doing. This is an embarrassment of a documentary. What happened to frontline?!

Split amazon up, it is too big
Amazon "would not release any data on crashes involving its driver network, but told us it had a better-than-average safety record".
Bullshit. Then why not release the data and prove it?
Who's the third party? It's Amazon.

Amazon represents third party vendors – that's all you need to know. They are therefore liable.
Lex Luther
That seemed pretty transparent. Thanks

Is nobody going to mention Jeff looks like a young schmigeal (sp?) from lord of the rings?

Wow. This was an absolutely incredible documentary. Equal parts inspiring, thought-provoking, and cautionary. Great Job Frontline.
I would like to see Aljazera do this same in depth journalism. But it is slanted by religious bias.
This report is certainly wide & deep. Let's remember he is just a mortal. Sanders is a far more dangerous man.
I think Jeff Bezos hired a witchcraft to cast a spell in his company then boom success
This is what happens when you bully the wrong motherfkrs' they will eventually own you . I am very afraid of this man
Bezos is like a real life Lex Luther. Where is our real Clark Kent/Superman to help stop him from world domination?
Bezos looks like a testicle with bug-eyes
Wait, this dudes last name was Pecker? You cant make this &*&@ Up!!!!
Once space colonization becomes feasible, the elites will no longer care about Earth.

Imagine living in a world where WALMART is the better option. Billionaires and mega corporations run the world.
Full of shit everyone works for the beast.
Frontline is the best!
This correspondent looks like Trent Dilfer.
Is anyone else under 40 starting to dislike boomers as a more homogenous group as time goes by?
No wonder they are destroying the planet!

PBS… could you please not ever have people from Buzzfeed on your Docs any more? lmao. They are horrible fake news propaganda trash.
This is piece rate work. Of course it sucks. There is no fulfillment in an assembly line. Perfect for sheeple.
