Where's a good place to buy books from not Amazon?
Barnes and noble has it. Also, try thriftbooks.com.
go into a local bookstore and ask them
Powells.com, the largest independent book seller I'm aware of.
Barnes and Noble has it. don't buy from amazon.
Even better, buy it through bookshop.org and also support a local bookstore: https://bookshop.org/p/books/careless-people-a-cautionary-tale-of-power-greed-and-lost-idealism/22213433
The hard cover is on back order, but they sell an ebook version.
This link goes to a 404 error
Thanks! Should be fixed!
What’s so bad about Amazon? It’s nice to have 2 day shipping and not have to go out of your way to get somewhere.
they treat their employees like garbage. they are union busters. Bozos backed a felon for US president. Just to name a few.
They provide the cloud infrastructure for the Israeli army.
"Book from a whistleblower - titled 'Meta' - that was declined from being promoted is now a best seller on Amazon"
Sometimes I hate the whole "proper prose title" that articles use
Edit:
Perhaps it's "Book from whistleblower that Meta blocked from being promoted is now a best seller on Amazon".
I didn't read the article. The title broke my brain
Heck, prose aside, is there something wrong with commas?
Those are used to replace "and" obviously.
It's just that punctuation is not meant to be used in titles.
English has a bunch of weird rules.
No? "Book from a whistleblower that Meta blocked from being promoted is now a best seller on Amazon ".
Book from a whistleblower, that Meta blocked from being promoted, is now a best seller on Amazon
Book from a whistleblower—which Meta blocked from being promoted—is now a best seller on Amazon.
Meta promotes books?
Updated the comment
Funniest thing, I would’ve never known about this book if Meta hadn’t tried to block the sales of it. Definitely going to read it and see how it is.
Barbara strikes again!
Streisand! Streisand! Streisand!
I wonder if we could get Barbara to endorse or at least comment on this book on whatever social media she's on.
Whoops!
How the fuck is an anti-disparagement clause even allowed to exist and how the fuck is it enforceable 8 years after she no longer works for the company, that's absolutely bullshit.
Normally I would hope for the government to step in and say this is not remotely legal. But unfortunately our government is currently in the hands of billionaire buddy Donnie F Trump.
Adding it to the TBR.
