Honestly, I would never do this. But am I a bad person to admit I wouldn’t be terribly upset if other people did?

In the meantime, what we should be doing is buying a shit load of stuff off of Amazon and then returning it, free of charge of course.

Better is to use Amazon as a giant catalog. Once you've found something you want to buy, google to find another seller and buy from them. If you can find it at a local business, even better.
With books, where Amazon started, one size fits all, and the colour is always right. But now, they just don't give a shit. Why should Bezos care? He's got all the money he'll ever want.
I quit Amazon six months ago. I have a lot more money in my account and I can say I did not keep paying to destroy the press.
Canada is in full rebellion.
Watched a CBC newscast.
People cancelling vacations to the US.
Buying Canadian.
The hilarious part is even without tariffs $C flowing to the US is going down.
But if money talks, make the money makers squeal

1. Search random products.
2. Add things to your cart, save some of them for later.
3. Start things like subscriptions, leave the process unfinished.
These things need to be stored to send u reminders to complete & price changes, & to create ads. This is storage AMZN has to pay for.
5. Fully logging out and logging in to any application will also create some drama.
6. Delete your cookies every single day. There's a reason why they store data in YOUR computer for their APP to work faster.
Here's an idea: "Return" a purchase to them, but inside the box, just send some dog turds instead of the item.
Huh?? Yeah?? 😂😂😂😂
What do is find it there, look for the business or company manufactures and go to their site and Buy it direct it might cost more, but just a fraction, so worth it
As a form of boycott, maybe you can ick out a justification… 😬
There are less environmentally impactful ways to protest.
I recommend people spend their energy on more effective means of protest
Stop buying from Amazon I would fully support.
Unless you can get that organized for us, this is just wasteful and ineffective.
These corporations are not going to "eat" anything. They can change and ignore any laws that might compel them ti decency, so those fees are moot.
Better to shun all Bezos businesses.
Better to simplybrefuse to buy anything from Amazon, and anything else Bezos created.
If you plan deny them funds, deny them, but do not give them money in the process!
You stop buying from them, you work against their gaining new customers,but you give them no more money.
You go after AWS. The platform throws off a ton of cash. And while you might hate them, the only company in the top 3 (AWS, GCP, Azure) is Microsoft. Migrate to Azure.
Killing your prime account entirely is the more impactful way to send a message.
Canceling your account is a much bigger message, especially if it's lot of people that canceled.
And I gave myself a raise.👍🏻

I really like Amazon's easy and hassle-free return policy and really would not like to see it scaled back.
I'm really not in that big if a hurry to get my package.
Even if I have to accept somewhat slower shipping and higher prices.
