Actually it made me think (bcs of how early on it happened, how fast they responded, and how fast/immediately they folded) that it was staged, they used the friendly Amazon as a big & immediately compliant case to show others they can't explain people they are getting taxed.

(Ofc now it's "officially known" & accepted Americans are the ones paying the tariffs.)
