Amazon at it's core is a hyper-localized logistics company. Their entire product is logistics, the bulk of their revenue comes from that, and that's how the company got started. This is just the next evolution of that as they see it, and it's fucking gross. Other companies take their lead so as not to attract negative attention when they emulate this crappy behavior, so expect much more of this in odd places you wouldn't expect.
