Amazon will work enthusiastically with the US military, its founder and chief executive Jeff Bezos has said. His unequivocal position comes as other firms, such as Google, pulled out of defence work after employee pressure. "If big tech companies are going to turn their back on the US Department of Defense, this country is going to be in trouble,” Mr Bezos said.
“We are going to continue to support the DoD, and I think we should,” he said. “One of the jobs of the senior leadership team is to make the right decision, even when it’s unpopular.” He later added: “This is a great country - it needs to be defended.”
... because the US's military dominance and foreign, ahem, interventions, aren't enough yet ?
