Amazon's Complicity in the Facebook-Cambridge Analytics Scandal

The new information here is that two researchers connected with Cambridge Analytica created tasks on Mechanical Turk, which were reported for TOS violations. Amazon's only apparent wrong here was that they were slow to respond to the reports (they're apparently slow to respond in general.) This information certainly shows that Amazon was involved, but not that they were knowingly complicit. I would rather that media outlets focus on the amount of data Amazon (and many other companies) also collect on their users.
