>TOS

That's a private rule and with Amazon as big as it is, we need to have a discussion if a TOS is even legal, if you take a blind eye on that, nothing stands in the way that big company's take over everything, if you want such a world...well then welcome to cyberpunk.

For large customers, the TOS is not just a click through agreement, it's actually signed as a part of an overall MSA.

I don't see how you could argue that a TOS is not legal when both parties signed and agreed to it.

Because it clashes often with existing law, many TOS's you can simply ignore (at least in europe) and yes even when you signed it. A TOS does not stand above existing law.
