Why Amazon bought Alexa:
news.com

Point they may have missed: People will *NOT* like their web habits so directly monitored by a store. They did not know they were signing up for that when they signed up for Alexa. If Amazon tries to use whatever info Alexa has gathered, there will be hell to pay.

Oh yeah, it's further evidence that Amazon managment doesn't consider it's stock to be worth anywhere near 22 billion.
