    let alone the fact that he created the company in the first place.

    I’m not sure THAT bit is what we should blame him for. If you remember, Amazon was originally just a convenient way to order books you might not find anywhere else because they connected you to tens of thousands of publishers.

    What they are now is, of course, a different story.

        Yes, and that’s something he should be blamed for. Though admittedly he didn’t do that alone either. Current CEO of Amazon was the head of AWS for a long time and is basically the reason the half the Internet runs on AWS, which is way worse than the shopping and delivery part of it
