Lmao, Amazon is worried that google and all the other competitors will scrape their information and make money off it. "Yes AI is amazing, but not like thaaaaaaat!" They're trying to out dirty each other.

Which is stupid because it's the equivalent of saying "you can't send someone to Walmart to buy an item for you. That should be illegal!"
