And when they start denying you footage of their workers in your home, for their privacy, then what?

Someone on Hacker News will comment that since you agreed to the EULA, Amazon can do whatever they want.

Wait, in this scenario you're envisioning Amazon is doing something for the benefit of their workers?

No they're envisioning Amazon claiming to protect their workers in bad faith in order to protect Amazon from suits for not vetting their workers properly.

The workers have no cash. They work for Amazon. Amazon has a lot of cash. Amazon is protecting Amazon against lawsuits.

Then you (or the market in general) don't use their service, and they'll be forced to change their minds, and have their "independent contractor cleaning partners" sign contracts to agree to surveillance to get any gig at all...

Fuck the grim Amazon future, with cloud feudalism spreading to real life and Jeff Bezos is Emperor..

This is when I deny access to their equipment and their workers in my home.
