Sad, would have loved a realtime news feed API distributed by AWS.

Isn’t this what Reuters and Associates Press offer?

Why would it need to be distributed by AWS?

Interesting that this remains. I'd expect Amazon lawyers to beat them over the head with C&Ds until they change the name.

Are Amazon lawyers known to be litigious on things like that? The logo has a clear "unofficial" tag and the information is a stream of press releases. I don't see why anyone would care about it.

Don't know about Amazon lawyers per se, but my understanding is that this is what almost always happens when some complementary third-party software uses in its name the name of the software it complements, in particular when it makes the third-party product seem to be developed or endorsed by the owners of the complemented product. May or may not be trademark related.

To see that you have to actually visit and pay attention. By name only, "AWS News" looks like an official Amazon/AWF too. The potential for confusion is real (any actual impact on the company, less so.)
These days you never know, just plop down any word after AWS and you’re likely to win AWS bingo.
