A few weeks ago, I bought a new television. When the whole process was over, I realized something incredible: To navigate all of the niggling details surrounding this one commercial transaction figuring out what to buy, whoch accessories I needed, how and where to install it, and whom to hire to do so I had dealt with only a single ubiquitous corporation: Amazon.It wasnt just the TV. As I began combing through other recent household decisions, I found that in 2016, nearly 10 percent of my households commercial transactions flowed through the Seattle retailer, more by far than any other company my family dealt with. Whats more, with its Echos, Fire TV devices, audiobooks, movies and TV shows, Amazon has become, for my family, more than a mere store. It is my confessor, my keeper of lists, a provider of food and culture, an entertainer and educator and handmaiden to my children.
