"Amazon.com Inc. doubled the number of junk ads to boost profits and deleted internal communications to thwart a federal antitrust probe"
Everything the FTC is saying here is true.
I monitored customer engagement across services including ads. I was instructed via numerous ticket streams and by numerous direct and skip managers to forge and delete data, for much of 2021 and 2022 [1]. Those tickets were then augmented and destroyed. We were also informed of new "30-day retention policies" with respect to internal communication threads on platforms such as Slack in 2021 (in addition to Signal). It's all true.
Anyone who tried to push back, escalate to senior leadership, and/or do their job successfully without committing federal/international crimes such as this was fired.
