Yeah, this is actually quite funny. You can also watch it on iTunes. Are Amazon and Apple exceptions with respect to selling your information? (I'm genuinely asking)

Apple’s whole stance is to protect your data. They don’t sell it.

Don’t know about Amazon but I think they use it for their own services only as they’re not advertising company. ---- EDIT: Brain fart, ignore

Amazon made $2 billion last quarter in advertisements. This is easily searchable, but here's the first result I found: https://marketingland.com/analysts-say-amazons-advertising-b...

As a comparison, Twitter made $758M in revenue last quarter.
