I do not (ever) advocate the use of profanity, let alone in an online response that exists forever. That said, the sheer hubris of the answer (essentially, drop dead) is, while not astonishing, revealing.

Amazon is a company. They have a right as a company to make their own decision and make their preferences clear. I, as a customer, also have the right to choose whom I spend my dollars with. While not a massive spender on Amazon, my spending is dropping down to effectively zero. There are other options, they just take a little more time and effort and money to reach.

If you did not have yet another reason to support small, local businesses, here you go.

Well, naturally they picked one of the worst ones, with lots of profanity, to make their point.

We've dropped way back on how much we're spending too. Next month's bill will set another record low for us. We go out of our way to find other sources, or deal with Amazon's vendors directly by going to their website, or locating them on Ebay.

I'm seriously thinking about pulling the plug on our numerous Alexa devices too.
