Comment on Amazon is forcibly upgrading Prime members to Alexa Plus, and users are not happy

The bullshit the company spins is just as, if not more, important than the raw numbers. Especially when companies only report mandated info and the raw numbers they’re referencing aren’t disclosed for comparison.
Statistics is the art of making up a narrative you want to show via numbers, and finding a way to say it exists regardless of reality.

Which, as I said, means it all comes out in the wash. If revenue is +100% here and -100% there, it’s 0%. Either they are looking big picture, and that’s what they see, or they’re zoomed in and therefore in a scenario where they would ask the follow up.
They care about revenue going up. It doesn’t go up, unless it does.
