Is this data different than the data that a major retailer would get from sales of a product on its shelves?
I'm also not saying that this is certainly 100% fair. I just doubt the motives of the media on this point because they knew that major retailers were doing this, and they never said a word about it.

This is what sold by Amazon items are like, and also why I don't care what Amazon does with that data.
With FBA, to me it seems more like if like a cloud provider (who I pay for specific services) decided to launch products/services based my internal data that they could see and wasn't public.

Amazon has been accused of that as well.[1] They claimed to have a policy not to do it, but admitted they could not guarantee that they have never violated it.[2] They are also known to monitor client data to help them decide which companies to try to acquire.[3]
