I'm not defending Amazon but what did they do that was evil? From what I read in the article, they were doing things a normal add-on developer isn't allowed to do, but that isn't inherently evil.

In a similar vein, your reasoning would conclude that white hat hackers are evil as well.

Having the power to do something bad, and doing something bad with that power are not equivalents.

Is it unfair that they received that power? Yes. Does that make it evil? No. Do I trust them? No.

I'm not defending Amazon, I'm questioning your reasoning because I don't arrive at the same conclusion.

Individuals in the US are not allowed to own machine guns except with extremely limited exceptions. Owning a machine gun does not inherently make one evil, so why can’t we own them?

Rhetorical question. You already know the answer.

That's not true. The laws vary by state with California being one of the most restrictive but other states like Idaho, Iowa, Montana, Nebraska, New Mexico, and Mississippi having no restrictions at all.
