>I wish I could say I stopped buying things off Amazon for ethical reasons, but the truth is, I stopped buying because if you look closely at the reviews, you realize that almost everything for sale there is now a scam or a knock-off.

that seems like an ethical reason to me.

It's more out of inconvenience than ethics. You don't stop buying off of Amazon because scammers are selling on it, you stop buying off Amazon because you become the victim of knockoff scams.

As in, the scammers could be scamming everyone but you but you'd still use it.
