They don't spy on you without your permission. Comments like these devalue actual instances where companies genuinely steal and manipulate data. Take the tin foil hat off...

If you're high enough level at Amazon to know for sure, you're also high enough level at Amazon to almost definitely lie to people about it and other things as part of your job.

So no, we will not be taking your word for it.

NDAs are null and void for illegal activity
