    This represents about 3 minutes of revenue for Amazon.

    I’m sure they’re thinking very hard about what they did wrong.

    Unless it comes directly out of the CEO’s pay, meaningless.

      Jeff Bezoz has a net worth of 152.6 billion dollars right now. 25 million dollars equals 0.16%.

      Just to put that into perspective.

        Right, and he’s not the CEO. But really should be a percentage of earnings/revenue and wealth for who it’s targeting.
