Looked up the ad, and that was impressive. I wonder if the person who wrote the ad was intentionally trying to whistle blow about how dangerous their company was.
Considering how the local pedophile can just use it to say “Oh yeah my cute son is missing. You’ll let me know if you see him. Right? I’d wanna know what house he lives i… err I mean if he’s been going to stranger’s houses yeah that.”
Or the crazy stalker can go “Yeah my ex-boyfriend’s car is missing. I wonder if it’s at the skank’s house. Where did she live again?”
Or the abusive husband can go “Yeah my wife is missing, said she was going to stay with a friend and haven’t seen her since. Anyway she looks like this.”
Like there’s so many ways this can be misused by bad faith agents and so few practical applications that aren’t just spying on people.
Even if Amazon had the best of intentions (they didn’t) and thought this just really sounded good on paper… the potiential for misuse is high and the potiential for good is situational at best.
Oh of course. This is all fully right. It’s just… companies just don’t care anymore. Not just Amazon/Tesla/Meta; but all companies. We have cars shutting themselves down because the company’s servers decide that car is overdue on payment. AI bots are driving people insane, and yet every company is shoving it down our throats. Every appliance breaks down in a few years and the companies will send suits to right-to-repair hearings to say, openly, that they prefer making piles of waste for money.
How about Coca Cola and Nestle—food companies that have killed their workers and use child slave labor to source goods. This is all known, and they don’t care; I think because they are confident most people won’t think about it.

I didn’t consider that before… but yeah, maybe.
