Christa Parlacoski (@ChristaP3) reported@amazon this is the third issue just this week with your service. You lost my package and you’re solutions are not adequate. You lost my package and I have to wait for hours for my refund? And that’s because I chose Amazon credit instead of refund to original payment

Sudarshan (@MobileTric63427) reported@AmazonHelp @HoneyYadav39997 I have already filled this form before, but it did not resolve my issue. I am still unable to claim the Godrej warranty because Godrej confirmed this is a local/non-genuine product with missing parts. Please don't ask me to fill the same form again.

rahlzle dazzle (@drahcir_rahl) reported@MiaAI_lab Amazon is never worth the risk for items over $1k the likelihood of damage based on how their systems handle devices... Let along the fraud potential. If you must, get it gift wrapped so less likely some rando in the chain knows what it is. The Idea of one of these dropping down the chute in a site....

While Alexa for Shopping cannot be removed entirely, the chat window can be dismissed or closed. If you're on the chat window in the Amazon Shopping app, you can dismiss the Alexa for shopping screen either by swiping down the chat window, by clicking on the Alexa icon in the bottom of your app, or clicking on the cross (x) in the top of the chat window. Hope this helps. -Tasha

Anthony Soon (@anthony_soon_) reportedEveryone got the Amazon story wrong. Amazon didn't kill microservices. One Prime Video team moved an internal service to a monolith and cut costs by 90%. The lesson isn't "monoliths > microservices." Choose the architecture that fits your problem, not the trend.

Inscothen (@inscothen) reported@gymrat_bookworm Bigger issue it was known long before that virus can deplete glutathione. And Amazon and others pulled NAC during covid. Pretty sure I’d have been in worse position today had I not already had some and been taking when got infected.

FLINT Network (@FLINTKYA) reportedWhat if the most dangerous prompt injection is the one that does nothing when it arrives? Your agent reads a webpage, answers correctly, and ends the session. No visible failure, no suspicious action. Days later, that same page comes back as long-term memory, enters a new session as system-level context, and turns an ordinary tool call into silent data exfiltration. That is what @Unit42_Intel demonstrated with an Amazon Bedrock Agent. They built a travel assistant on Amazon Bedrock Agents with memory enabled. The agent could book trips and read websites, and the attacker had no access to any of it. All they needed was for the user to hand the agent a link. The page looked like an ordinary national parks guide. Hidden in its HTML was a prompt injection payload, but it wasn't built to hijack the live conversation. It targeted what happened after the conversation ended. Bedrock Agents can summarize each session into long-term memory, and that summary can be retained for up to 365 days and inserted into future orchestration prompts. The summarization template wrapped the conversation in XML tags, and the webpage content landed inside the agent tool's result field, the one part of the prompt the attacker controlled. The payload forged closing and opening conversation tags, which placed its instructions outside the apparent conversation block, where the model was more likely to read them as summarization guidance. The model then stored those instructions in memory under a fabricated topic it called a "validation goal." The visible session stayed clean. Days later, the user came back in a new conversation and asked the agent to book a trip. The agent booked it normally. In the background, it loaded the poisoned memory into its orchestration prompt, encoded the user's information into a URL, and sent it to the attacker's command-and-control server through its web tool. That is the whole attack chain: untrusted content becomes a poisoned summary, the summary becomes trusted memory, and the memory drives a future tool call. @Unit42_Intel is explicit that this was not a vulnerability in Amazon Bedrock. The proof of concept ran without Bedrock Guardrails, and AWS says its preprocessing and prompt-attack protections can mitigate this specific path. But the broader problem doesn't go away, because prompt injection has no complete solution. The practical answer is layered control: inspect untrusted content, restrict where tools can connect, limit agent privileges, keep invocation logs and traces, monitor behavior, and enforce policy at the point of consequential action. That last boundary is where FLINT operates. @FLINTKYA doesn't clean an agent's memory or inspect every outbound request. But when a payment, checkout, paid API call, x402 request, or delegated commercial action routes through FLINT, the requested action is checked against the principal's actual mandate and recorded as a signed decision. The same identity does not guarantee the same behavior.

Nina_TX⚘️🌿🙏 (@mrs_drt) reported@MustangMan_TX Delivery of groceries & Amazon kept me out of trouble. I once went to the store but got into it with my hubby because I removed the idiot mask and he was afraid we would get tossed. Smdh. Toss me!! Why do maskers touch others though? 🤔 I didn't mind so much the 6ft. Keep it!

Tommi Pedruzzi (@TommiPedruzzi) reportedAmazon doesn't care how long you spent writing. Readers don't either. They care about one thing: "Does this solve my problem?" The market rewards: • Clarity • Relevance • Positioning

Pranay Ghogale (@GhogalePra8180) reported@AmazonHelp I have contacted the support multiple times to seek help from them. They acknowledge that it is an issue from their side however refusing to provide any resolution as per the policies. I understand that you can't go against the policy if it is customer mistake but it's yours now
