This is the first result for “spying” in a search:
Espionage, spying, or intelligence gathering, as a subfield of the intelligence field, is the act of obtaining secret or confidential information (intelligence). A person who commits espionage on a mission-specific contract is called an espionage agent or spy.
Does it apply to amazon? I think it depends on what’s considered “confidential”. Which is not just about what one thinks is confidential but the context in which that information is used.
Also, this is just the information they send back to you. It may only be due to GDPR. It does not mean there isn’t more.
Of course there could be more but I don’t see the point of making that assumption or living that way. I’ll just limit my data input in case. While Amazon should be more transparent people still wouldn’t believe them and “if” they are truly only collecting the input I give them then I don’t consider that spying. With that said it’s good to know and each individual can choose if they’re ok with it or not.
