But Amazon remembers. And every time I visit their website, it suggests a bevy of Star Wars books that I might like.
I can't make it stop. I've tried. I've tried. I've tried.
The reason I can't change it is because when Amazon suggests an item that you might want, it will discount the price to help entice a sale. Like all good systems, people began to game the system and force Amazon to recommend big ticket items so that they reduce the price (5% really adds up on a $2000 computer). Once word got out, Amazon changed their policy to make it harder to guide their suggestions towards the items you were going to buy anyway.
I guess it shouldn't bother me so much. But this all relates back to a simple fear that other people misunderstand my positions. I suppose this entire post is built on that fear.
