Nine hours after this was posted the link is 404'ing and about 90% of the links in the comments are also showing a 404. Is some Amazon employee spending their friday afternoon manually removing product listings?
1. Allow 20,000 bads to happen through systemic enshittification
2. Get called out on 20 of the bads
3. Hurry up and have some poor sap manually "fix" the bads being highlighted in the public forum
4. "We've fixed every bad we've been informed of!"
5. ???
6. Profit
I get the feeling they love these sellers but just don’t like them messing up the titles.
They’re perfectly happy with low quality drop shipped items with badly written descriptions. They make tons of money from those.
Amazon initially didn't take the product down from its site after being informed of these results, saying it had documentation supporting its safety, according to the Journal. Later Amazon did remove the product, saying it would ask for more documentation from the company it had used to test it.
