I was specifically talking about any traffic that is connected through an amazon device.

but I am guessing that they are going to use it like the former whisper net for kindle devices, and for the tile trackers of course.

like I said I don’t assume amazon is being a bad actor here

I don’t get what you don’t understand.

Amazon has decided that they can interpret the “terms of use” for a device they “sold” you to include their use of your access to the Internet.

With GPS devices and the password you’ve given them, they can enable other devices in your area to access your WiFi.

Of course, they charge for this, and they don’t pay you.

Your assessment of a bad actor leaves much to be desired.
