Many of the companies under Bezos were acquired by Amazon, but Bezos himself acquired a handful under his investment arm, Bezos Expeditions. This is the complete list of Bezos and Amazon companies.
Ugh, iRobot too. So now I’ve got to replace my Ring doorbell and get rid of my expensive robot vacuum and mop. Damnit.
Oh well, I can vacuum and mop by hand.
Fortunately, our Alexa devices are gone, Audible has been cancelled, our Kindles have been replaced, Amazon Prime, Amazon Kids, and Amazon Prime Video subscriptions are cancelled, and I just got my old photos copied down from Amazon Photos yesterday. So, I think I’m good to delete my Amazon account altogether.
I didn’t see thriftbooks on the list, so that’s a relief.

Great job pulling the plug. I’m over 95% unplugged. Abebooks was my book source though because I thought it was independently owned.
Edit: btw, most of those camera systems are owned by some kind of schmuck. Nest is Google.
Bookshop.org supposedly shares revenue with your local book store.
Thank you, I will give that a shot.
