After receiving more than 75,000 individual complaints that its Alex-powered Echo devices were spying on them, Amazon has abandoned its policy that such complaints must be resolved outside the court system via secretive arbitration proceedings, and will instead allow customers to file lawsuits, according to the Wall Street Journal.
In other words, “so sue us.”
The company quietly changed its terms of service to file lawsuits, as the company already faces at least three class-action suits – including one brought May 18 alleging that the company’s Echo devices were recording people without permission.
The retail giant made the change after plaintiffs’ lawyers flooded Amazon with more than 75,000 individual arbitration demands on behalf of Echo users. That move triggered a bill for tens of millions of dollars in filing fees, according to lawyers involved, payable by Amazon under its own policies.
Amazon’s decision to drop its arbitration requirement is the starkest example yet of how companies are responding to plaintiffs’ lawyers pushing the arbitration system to its limits. -WSJ
Arbitration agreements are typically buried in the fine print in order to avoid costly litigation, while many employers use them for adjudicating issues such as discrimination complaints or pay disputes. The right to require arbitration has been repeatedly upheld by the US Supreme Court.
During private arbitration, less evidence is presented and there are no appeals – with companies typically agreeing to pay for initial filing fees ranging between $100 and $2,000. The proceedings are managed by companies that charge an additional fee, while the arbitrators themselves will of course bill for their time.
According to consumer advocates and plaintiffs’ lawyers, arbitration usually makes it financially worthwhile for individuals to pursue claims, while companies say it’s a fair process.
“Companies thought they were getting out of liability altogether,” with arbitration clauses, says Chicago lawyer Travis Lenkner, whose firm filed the majority of the Amazon claims. “Now they’re seeing exactly what they bargained for, and they don’t like it.”
The mass-arbitration filings have forced companies to scramble. Uber Technologies Inc., Lyft Inc., and TurboTax maker Intuit Inc. have all tried to avoid paying filing fees or direct claims back into court after being hit in recent years with thousands of arbitration claims.
Few companies so far seem ready to scrap arbitration outright like Amazon.
Instead, some are requiring employees to speak to a lawyer at the company before filing an arbitration claim. One arbitration provider created a mass-claim protocol that calls for handling a few test cases before the full filing fees come due. -WSJ
Claims against Amazon began pouring in after it was revealed in 2019 that Alexa devices were storing recordings of users without their consent. When consumers filed for class-action lawsuits claiming that the recordings violated consent laws, Amazon was able to successfully argue that the claims belonged in arbitration. In early 2020, Keller Lenkner and other firms filed tens of thousands of individual arbitration demands.
One year later, Amazon’s attorneys notified plaintiffs’ attorneys of their recent change in terms of service – eliminating a 350-word arbitration requirement and replacing it with two sentences that say disputes can be brought in a state or federal court near Amazon’s Washington state headquarters.
Local attorneys are surely buzzing with excitement.

A United States agency says that it’s perfectly acceptable for an employer to mandate a COVID-19 “vaccine” or experimental gene therapy shot as a condition of employment. On Friday, right before the long holiday weekend, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) said you don’t have to give equal opportunity to those who refuse the state’s injection.
In a push to get as many of these shots into as many people as possible, the government is pulling out all the stops. The EEOC, in a statement posted on its website explaining its updated guidance, said employees can be required to be vaccinated as long as employers comply with the reasonable accommodation provisions of the Americans with Disabilities Act and other laws.
In addition, employers may offer incentives to workers to be vaccinated, as long as they are not coercive, it said, according to a report by Reuters.
Federal Government Want Employers To “Incentivize” Workers To Get The COVID Jab
The vast majority of employers have been reluctant to require workers to be vaccinated. A survey by management-side law firm Fisher Phillips earlier this year found that only 9% of the more than 700 employers surveyed said they were considering mandating vaccines.
COVID-19 mRNA Shots Are Legally Not Vaccines
There is a desperate push to get people to take these shots. There could even be incentives to companies from the government to help them mandate the jab. Why they continue to force these shots now that everyone who wanted one has gotten one, has yet to be seen, but it’s become glaringly obvious that the state wants as many people as possible to willingly take this thing. If this shot was so great, wouldn’t everyone have taken it already? You don’t need to convince or incentivize people to do the right thing if it is actually the right thing.
Keep your critical thinking skills up to par. Use discernment when reading or listening to anything and make sure your preps are in order. No one really knows what’s coming, but we do know (as evidenced by the great toilet paper shortage of 2020) that those who are prepared for as many situations as possible and plans in place will fare much better than those who do not.

The federal government is still pushing the experimental gene therapy shot on everyone. They have now given the go-ahead for employers to “incentivize” their workers to take the shot.
The government says that employers in the United States should do whatever it takes to get the “vaccine” into as many people as possible. This comes as those willing to take this experimental jab slow. Most of the holdouts now also say there is no convincing.
COVID-19 mRNA Shots Are Legally Not Vaccines
As vaccinations continue to slow, and states beef up incentives including lotteries and cash prizes to any adults who agree to get vaccinated who haven’t already, the EEOC has just issued some long-awaited guidance on how far companies can go in pushing workers to be vaccinated. Some companies, including Delta Air Lines, have said they won’t hire anyone who hasn’t already been vaccinated. -ZeroHedge
Earlier today, EEOC posted updated and expanded technical assistance related to the COVID-19 pandemic, including answers to FAQs concerning vaccinations in the employment context. https://t.co/wUWNs6bG3L

The updated guidelines say employers may offer incentives to their employees to provide documentation showing they have been vaccinated since requesting this proof “is not a disability-related inquiry” or an “unlawful request” under federal anti-discrimination laws. What’s more, companies who choose to offer the vaccine on-site, or who incentivize employees to get vaccinated elsewhere, can’t offer perks or punishments substantial enough to be “coercive,” according to a report by ZeroHedge.
Employers including Dollar General, Aldi, and Instacart have already moved to reward their employees for receiving the Covid-19 vaccine by offering paid time off and cash stipends. And in April, President Joe Biden called on every employer to offer paid time off for workers to recover from potential vaccine side effects.

We are quickly approaching the punishment phase of the “vaccine” rollout. If people are not coerced into taking this shot with incentives, soon, we could see a dystopian reality of punishments doled out to those who continue to refuse to comply. They have already told us it’s coming, it’s just a matter of time:

Stay prepared and alert to what is going on. Make sure you use common sense, discernment, and your own critical thinking skills. We are going to see an interesting year if things continue down the path we are currently on.
