Amazon cancels my account after exposing account lockout for “racist doorbell” [video]
Summary:<p>The YouTuber had his Amazon affiliate account canceled after 7 years 
without warning or evidence of wrongdoing. The reason given was that 
purchases made through his links were for personal use or made by 
friends and family, which he denies. He finds the timing suspicious as 
it came a week after he made a video criticizing Amazon for canceling a 
customer's account for a racist doorbell claim. He argues that the small
 amount of revenue from his affiliate links is inconsequential to him. 
He believes Amazon is becoming less accountable as it grows in power and
 treats customers worse. While not excusing Amazon's actions, he 
questions whether enough vetting was done before canceling his account. 
The snap decision shows how trigger happy Amazon is to remove people's 
accounts.
