apologies! the word was ‘zoox.’ did not notice the autocorrect until your post! “In 2020, Amazon acquired Zoox for $1.2 billion. The autonomous vehicle company aims to populate the streets of large cities with self-driving, ride-hailing vehicles.” & there’s more : www.thomasnet.com/insights/jef...

The only one in your list I use is zoom because I have to for work. Amazon doesn't own zoom. Are they on the list because they heavily use AWS? It's really hard to avoid services that are hosted in AWS. ☹️

I replaced Abe Books (and Amazon) with bookshop.org, which in turn supports independent booksellers.

I really like alibris.com which connects with book stores all over the country. They're really good if you're looking for something that's out of print.
