Sounds like a good reason to publicly shame amazon, thus damaging their brand value. If the damage to their brand is high enough, decent working conditions pay of. People start to be proud to claim that they "stopped to use Amazon".

Or what about some tighter regulation of their working conditions? Sounds uncomfortable - might be cheaper to just improve the situation of the workers ...

The unions are just doing their work with Amazon, and they are doing it very well.

I know someone who it affected and they were going to buy their kindle from somewhere other than Amazon.

So I guess it does impact their brand but unfortunately sometimes there is no where else to go.
