Its the quantum theory of technology. New tech cannot be just a little better. It has to be a quantum leap. It has to be significant enough to overcome the inertia of an establish tech and ecosystem. Or it must fulfill a specific need.
actually Walllgreen's is not any more responsible for the Wallgreen's brand than any other. It's just another third party manufacturer just with custom labeling. It's not any different than any other product they sell.
If you buy a defective product from Target would you sue the cashier? No?
But she took your money, she gave you the product, she's the seller... right? No?
This is no different. Its just that the scale is different.
Is the party store responsible if there is a mouse in your beer. No.
Is a car dealer responsible for a manufacturers defect. No.
Is your pharmacy responsible for a bad batch of viagra? No.
The fact is we have a lot of people here operating off emotional biases, focusing their hate on the big bad company and ignoring the facts. If this family had bought the device at the little mom and pop store on the corner that's been there 60 years would the same people think they should lose their business, home and life savings? Are they prepared to give up their homes if they sell an item in a garage sale that breaks? But it's ok if it's the "bad" company. This is the same reasoning that convicts innocent minorities because, 'well they look like thugs they probably did something wrong'.
#2 already exists and Amazon complied fully. The thing is this is a reactive, not proactive system. The items we determined to be defective. A recall was issued. Amazon suspended all sales. (actually iI think they did that before the recall was issued)
Quit making stuff up, No where is it indicated that Amazon doesn't know who the seller is, or that they haven't provided that information.
Amazon is nothing like Uber. Uber is based on a business model of violating the law to gain an advantage and calling it innovation. Amazon just took a business model that has existed for centuries and scaled it up for the web. Sorry but consignment selling has existed for centuries. it's not some new scam.
The fact here is these people bought something out the back of a van, and when it was defective decided to sue Chevy.
Who says they "they are failing to maintain contact information'. Everything sounds better when you make stuff up. There lawyers chose to go after Amazon instead of the sellers because Amazon is in the US and has lots of money. And the fact that the sellers likely went under due to the high return rate. That would be the reason they can't find the manufacturer.
You can't sell something you don't own. At no time does Amazon own these products or assume any risk. Amazon is just a set price auction house. This is not a new concept. Plenty of consignment houses exist and have for decade and centuries. Amazon does not get the money from the sale the seller does minus Amazon's fee. Not new, not a scam, just a way to provide a service. Responsibility follows risk and therefore is not Amazon's. Many Judges have ruled very clearly here... AMAZON IS NOT THE SELLER.
Amazon only sells there own products. Everything else is a third party. You cant sue a farmers market because the guy in stall 6 sold mushy fruit. The product never belonged to Amazon. If you buy crap on Ebay you can't sue Ebay you sue the seller.
They didn't sell it. Amazon is no more responsible then UPS was for delivering it of VISA was for handling the payment. The families lawyer just went after the deepest pockets as Omar's imports probably went under already. Yes Amazon definitely knows who the seller was and so does the family and their lawyer.
Funny that's the exact reason it lost points.
"Windows Defender's performance rating was dragged down because it slowed the installation of frequently used applications more than the industry average, and wrongly detected 16 pieces of legitimate software compared with the industry average of four."
Boba is one of the most fleshed out characters in the Star Wars universe. His backstory is covered heavily in the Clone Wars series and there are countless books dedicated to him.
Only one country in the middle east has ever directly committed terror attacks against US interests. Israel.
I'm thinking they're the ones we need to not have nukes.
So really the only sanctions will be against US businesses. One of the main reasons the US made this agreement was that it would have happened without us anyway. All Trump did was spike US gas prices.
Marketers have been using this tech for some time. Took me a while to notice the tell tale second of static before the very casual and always identical hello. When I started immediately hanging up It changed its voice. Still calling a few times a week and I am sick of it. Now is the time to ban all robocalling and institute a humans only rule on voice calls.
So you never heard of spell checking. What backward planet do you live on. Modern word processors do recognize the difference between an abbreviation and the end of a sentence. If they didn't they would try and get you to capitalize every word after an abbreviation. Two spaces isn't writing it is formatting and that is why it is wrong. Those that ignore the wisdom of Robin Williams are truly lost.
I would say that like incandescent light bulbs, todays alkaline batteries are nothing like yesterdays. I'd love to see a graph of useful power output per dollar over time. Cheap dollar store batteries today are likely as good as the energizers and duracells of a decade or so ago.
He was trying to make money using someone else's property that makes him a thief plain and simple. Just because he was stealing from scumbags doesn't make it legal. If he was illegally selling LINUX discs or any other freeware you people would be calling for his execution. Giving something away for free doesn't negate your copyright that is a key cornerstone of open source.

Apparently MS is unfamiliar with the concept of a boat. Or security.

No they went after the money. Amazon=Billions. Kim Sung's Flybynight Exports=a couple thousand yen.
The seller. They still own the product. I your in a parking lot and your car catches on fire and destroys 2 other cars, your responsible.

Outside of the US there really is no difference between the two.
who do you think this tech was really created for. They are already using it against us.

Science. say they all offer about the same value in power per dollar.

There gonna have to sue the post office and every other form of media too. They all let you target by demographics to some extent or another.
LINUX is still copyrighted and he was going to sell them so it was copyright infringement, trademark infringement and fraud.
He was trying to make money using someone else's property that makes him a thief plain and simple. Just because he was stealing from scumbags doesn't make it legal. If he was illegally selling LINUX discs or any other freeware you people would be calling for his execution.
