Amazon is one of the largest employers in the world. It’s lip service, as further evidenced by the tons of fakes on their website.

Anyone who wishes, Amazon staff included, can go and see the $10 “1TB” usb flash drives that are just 16GB drives with hacked firmware to report a different size. It takes about 2 minutes to find them. They don’t bother.

The evidence is there if you want it.

Or just a plain old text search. One of the examples in the article has "50 pcs disposable surgical mask" in the product name.

I just searched that myself on Amazon and got 178 results, and most are at inflated prices.
