Haroon Zaman | Amazon Brands (@MHaroon_Zaman) reported@AdvaitBharat @amznsellerhelp The real issue is Amazon’s entity-linkage verification, not ownership proof. Escalation needs to address the underlying association, not repeat documentation.

Edmundo E Martinez Jr (@MaroonAtMidnite) reported@KevO4188 WhiskeyTango was on a whole other level. I found it on Amazon a few years ago and order a case… super shady, leaks, broken cans… but **** it hits hard!

Michael Heaberlin 🟠⚪ (@mjheaberlin) reportedI don't understand how delivery services can be so terrible. The last 3 things I've ordered all delivered to the wrong house. One from Walmart, one from FedEx, and one from Amazon. They even have the the house number in the pictures they take. Smfh 🙄

JovanHuttonPulitzer™ אני לא סובל טיפשים! (@JovanHPulitzer) reported@stelzner_n1150 This has to be the stupidest comment ever sorry. 100% of cell phones, smart phones, cable boxes, electric meters, computer usage and email GOES THROUGH DATA centers and always has! Here are the facts: That claim is backwards. The internet and smartphones have always run on data centers (or the same thing under older names: server rooms, colo, hosting farms). What changed is the size, location, and branding — not whether the machines exist. The internet never ran without servers Commercial internet use took off in the early 1990s. From day one it needed: ISP modem banks and backbone routers Web/email/DNS servers Co-location and hosting facilities Those are data centers. Exodus, AboveNet, Equinix, and telco “carrier hotels” were already packing raised-floor rooms with racks in the mid-to-late 1990s. Google’s first big custom plants and Amazon’s early AWS rooms were 2000s expansions of that model, not a new species of building. You could run a static homepage off a PC in a closet. You could not run search, streaming, maps, payments, or “the internet” as people actually used it. Smartphones made the dependence worse, not optional The iPhone shipped in 2007. A phone is a thin client. Almost everything people treat as “the phone” lives off-device: iCloud / Google account sync Maps and traffic App Store / Play Store Gmail, Photos, Drive Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Spotify Siri / Assistant Banking and payments That traffic hits someone’s data center. If those rooms went dark, the glass slab in your pocket would still make calls on a good day and not much else. Twenty years of smartphones is twenty years of more backend compute, not twenty years without it.

Tesla Girl (@TeslaGirlSWFL) reportedUp in the cloud??? LOL Derp Julie Borowski @JulieBorowski· The difference is my phone stores data up in the cloud. Data centers take up land down here that we need to grow food. Kenny Webster @KennethRWebster· If you own an iPhone, buy things on Amazon, store data in the cloud, use GPS, stream Netflix and still complain about data centers on X, you don’t really believe what you’re saying.

John Son (@cdjohn23) reported@AmazonHelp Ordered a pan that arrived defective, requested a return, but your agent refused pickup saying the image differs, yet the product page clearly shows the exact same item I received. This is the 3rd issue I've faced in just 2 weeks with Amazon orders.

Daron Absher (@norad88A) reported@circlethywagons @SethAbramson How long would Amazon stay in business if they decide not to deliver an entire truck load of packages because one package had an error?

CTK Capital Intelligence (@CTKCapitalIntel) reported$DELL Dell reported Q2 FY2027 after the bell and the guide is bigger news than the quarter. Revenue: $46.97B vs $44.92B expected, up 58% year over year, a quarterly record. Adjusted EPS: $7.04 vs $4.95 expected, up 203% from $2.32 a year ago. AI-optimized server revenue: $16.4B in the quarter, roughly double year over year. AI server orders booked: a record $60.9B in a single quarter. Last quarter that number was $24.4B. AI backlog: a record $95B, up from $51.3B exiting Q1. Traditional servers and networking rose 20% year over year. Storage grew 26%. Client solutions grew 20%. The guides: Q3 revenue: $49B vs $41.42B forecast by LSEG analysts. Q3 adjusted EPS: $6.50 vs $4.48 forecast. Full-year FY27 revenue: raised to approximately $192B from $167B. That implies roughly 69% growth for the fiscal year. Full-year adjusted EPS: raised to $25.50, roughly a tripling year over year. Shares rose about 4.3% after hours. The backlog is the number that matters. $95B of unfilled orders means the demand pipeline extends well past this fiscal year, and it nearly doubled in a single quarter. Dell booked $60.9B of new AI orders while shipping $16.4B, meaning orders came in at close to four times the rate the company can convert them. That is the same sentence the entire complex has been repeating. Nvidia said its constraint is supply, not demand, and guided to 70% growth in fiscal 2028 against a 44% consensus. Caterpillar restarted a discontinued engine platform because it can't build fast enough. Alphabet and Amazon both raised capex and both said they're capacity-constrained. Dell just said it again with a $95B number attached. The open question going in was margin, not demand. Server DRAM prices are rising 13% to 18% sequentially this quarter per TrendForce, and Dell's AI server operating margins run in the mid-single digits. EPS of $7.04 against a $4.95 estimate suggests the memory squeeze didn't break the model this quarter. Whether it holds as $95B of backlog converts is the thing to watch, not the headline revenue. Dell returned $4.3B to shareholders in the quarter. Operating cash flow was $2.2B. The stock entered the print up roughly 237% year to date. Educational only. Not financial advice.

Chris Cook (@Chrisco87940723) reported@avidseries Mechanization reduces labor. Amazon and others decrease the need for retailers of all kinds. And small retailers with slow inventory turnover (small towns) fail first. It happens even more quickly when Local and state governments fail to reduce taxes and government quickly enough to match the decline in population. Increasing sophistication (media) makes it easier to see what they are missing out on—medical specialists, better housing, restaurants fast food, social life, entertainments, etc. and, the grass is always greener. It seems inevitable.

Anibal Gutierrez (@AnibalGuti15760) reported@AmazonHelp I provided the address of the hacker who now owns my account. I provided an order number from an item I have been unable to return. When I asked one of the many slow to comprehend reps to check the history on that account, I was told that he could not go into that account

Ben Warren (@benwarrendtc) reportedHeadline busting news in the world of commerce: 22 states and the FTC are suing Amazon alleging a $20 billion ad-rigging scheme. There's a hard truth underneath this story: many brands have been throwing away money due to their own mismanagement of Amazon PPC. Most brands and even many "professional" PPC agencies leave campaign level bidding strategy on Dynamic bids - up and down. That setting lets Amazon raise the bid you set by up to 100%. You put in a bid of $1.50 and Amazon can bid $3.00 with your budget. The lawsuit alleges that Amazon manipulated PPC bidding and claims about 1.2 million advertisers got hit, including 500k small businesses. Amazon denies it. If they were changing the rules on the auction, they should answer for it. That said, if you let them, that's on you. The government can try to hold Amazon accountable. It's our job to hold our team and agencies accountable. Use this news as an opportunity to do just that.

LustraSkye (@LustraSkye) reportedThe Guardian reported that the developer and UK Government “had misrepresented the N Lanarkshire project’s technical feasibility” for the Lanarkshire AI growth zone, quoting SNP councillor Lesley Backhouse (“It is extreme overdevelopment…”) and Graham Simpson MSP (The Guardian, 7 July 2026). The National’s lobbying investigation documented 31 or more meetings since the start of 2025, including Apatura lobbying SNP MSP Clare Adamson about submitting Ravenscraig as an AI Growth Zone, with CoreWeave, Apatura, DataVita, Microsoft, Google, Amazon, Cisco, IBM, TechUK and ScotlandIS among those lobbying (The National, 25 August 2026). The Scottish Government’s own FOI release confirms the designation was driven by a DataVita-led proposal to the UK department and by Kate Forbes’s February 2025 letter arguing Scotland should be the priority UK location for “hyperscale data centre developments” and that AI Growth Zones should not “slow down or divert that interest from Scotland” (FOI 202600519904 annex; FOI landing page).

अमित (@amitbiz) reportedBought a new laptop from Amazon with an old LT exchange. Your guy refused to take the old LT as it had an issue. If there’s a problem with the old LT, Amazon should allow it to be accepted as “nonworking” & deduct the right amount from the exchange value. @amazonIN, #AmazonIndia

Steve aka 'Ds Dummy' - London 9/4-7 (@dsdummy_) reportedEnglish friend insists I'll be clocked tourist because why does the shirt have to say United Kingdom on it? Fair point.

Dark Vault Daily (@darkvaultdaily) reported@MorbidKnowledge He lost both parents six days apart, requested bereavement leave, and says he was fired days later. Amazon disputes his account, saying the leave was approved and that he was terminated after a separate investigation. The lawsuit now comes down to which version is true.
