Bezos the Pirate

Do you own an Amazon smart device? If so, odds are good that the company is already sharing your internet connection with your neighbors unless you’ve specifically told it not to.

On Tuesday, the company launched a program that forces users of many Echo smart speakers and Ring security cameras to automatically share a small portion of their home wireless bandwidth with neighbors. The only way to stop it is to turn it off yourself.

Amazon, which is a wealthy company that has made much of their money on the backs of their workers, to the point that "Amazon warehouse" is a modern synonym for "sweatshop", now seeks to make even more money by stealing your bandwidth.

If you have one of their devices, shut that shit off.
