Now that more and more people are becoming aware of the shady and irresponsible practices of #Facebook and #Google and start boycotting, we should not forget about good ol' #Amazon.
Jeff Bezos is the richest guy in the world and does not know where to put his money, while his company treats workers like shit and destroys markets. And let's not forget about Alexa surveillance and AWS centralization - they actually do too much evil to mention it all. Oh, and naturally, they don't pay taxes.

Here's an ethical alternative to #Amazon, it's a UK-based federation of independent #bookshops that sells #books, #ebooks, #audiobooks, #DVDs, #blurays etc through a single website. It's called Hive:
You can get orders delivered to your door, or to your nearest indie #bookshop.
Postage is free within the UK, and extra outside the UK.
You can also nominate one indie #bookstore to receive a percentage of everything you buy through Hive.
