Did I say anything about bezos? No. Quit deflecting and making strawmen.

Amazon is already under antitrust charges in the EU and under investigation for antitrust in the US, stop ignoring that fact.

I'm trying to understand what you meant when you said that Amazon is a threat to democracy. That is a very strong claim. What exactly do you mean and what is your evidence for it?

> stop ignoring that fact

I'm not ignoring the fact that there is criticism of Amazon and that it is being investigated. I'm expressing an opinion on the basis of professional expertise: I do not see Amazon as a monopolist in general, nor do I see any particular concern from this acquisition.
