I understand if we hoped antitrust action on Kindle (since they fought dirty and illegal against Barnes and Noble.)

But both AMZN "bazaar" and AWS are novel concepts invented by AMZN, and they have worked really hard to make them reality on such unbelievable scales.

Nobody thought of AWS for decades, until AMZN faced the systems problem and came up with cloud computing via AWS.

I understand taking action on AMZN acquisitions since they are reducing competition illegally. But AWS is an absolutely novel idea by them, and in my opinion, we have no right to take any action there. Also there is a LOT of competition in cloud computing by AZURE and GCP

So what's the damage for AMZN if it were split? The shareholders are going to be massively rewarded by that (including Bezos).
