Amazon’s newest feature lets Prime members send gifts to anyone as long as they have either a phone number or email address, and there’s no way to opt out, which seems problematic https://t.co/zVzA2WTb0L pic.twitter.com/m8IA7KKyBF

Oh Amazon, when will you stop with endless fodder for me to critique?
My first thoughts:
-Can people include a gift message? If yes, watch as people buy "gifts" for $0.99 just to send someone an abusive messagehttps://t.co/0TXeuhSFi0

Soooo, this is definitely going to be used for abuse and harassment, yes? https://t.co/WUyauAs22e

Imagine if they'd asked "how might this be used to harass or abuse someone?" — and then actually listened to the answer.

Anyway, read @epenzeymoog's book, y'all. https://t.co/TcaJr9lu5D

This is grotesque.

No. Random people that know your email address should _not_ be able to ship things to you without permission.

What??https://t.co/eLzT0sAYUo
