Amazon destroys $1.5m of sellers inventory – now homeless
<p><pre><code>  The merchants must navigate a largely automated, 
  guilty-until-proven-innocent process in which Amazon 
  serves as judge and jury. Their emails and calls can go 
  unanswered, or Amazon&#x27;s replies are incomprehensible, 
  making sellers suspect they&#x27;re at the mercy of 
  algorithms with little human oversight.

This is something our modern society was and is not ready for. Bureaucracy and the bureaucrats that administered it is a nightmare that society has known about and dealt with for a long time. But this is fully automated bureaucracy. Except instead of having well known rules or human bureaucrats we can confront.. we&#x27;re now effectively at the mercy of a dice roll in the worst case. And no one can even confirm if the dice are even fair dice. In the best case you get to deal with a robot that can&#x27;t even understand what you&#x27;re saying.
