This is the best summary I could come up with:
The CNIL says that Amazon France Logistique has implemented a “surveillance system” that is “overly intrusive.”
In particular, the CNIL is focusing on the warehouse barcode scanner and Amazon’s data gathering practices related to the connected device.
When an order is processed, an Amazon picker grabs a product, scans it with the connected scanner and puts it into a crate so that it can be shipped to the customer.
“More generally, the CNIL considered excessive to keep all the data collected by the system, as well as the resulting statistical indicators, for all employees and temporary workers, for a period of 31 days,” the French regulator wrote.
“We strongly disagree with the CNIL’s conclusions, which are factually incorrect, and we might appeal the decision,” Amazon wrote.
And in more details, Amazon says that the “stow machine gun” indicator has been created so that workers can inspect products before they are stored to make sure that they aren’t damaged.
