> I see no change in this over time, nor do I know why companies would even care that an e-mail provider (including Google) would be able to read that information. I don't think this phenomenon exists at all.

Thanks, but so as far as I can tell from that, Amazon is the only company to have made this change, and it's pure speculation as to why.

I just checked my e-mails, and Target and Wal-Mart still include an itemized list in your order confirmation e-mail. So does Best Buy, J. Crew, GAP, Shopify, eBay, and literally every other store I order from.

So a single company made this change, and nobody knows why? That's not a phenomenon or trend.
