Amazon Offers One-Click Presidential Purchasing
from the do-they-have-a-patent-on-that dept
Dennis points out that you can now use Amazon's patented one-click method to buy your Presidential choice... Well, actually, just to donate money to the Presidential candidate of your choice (assuming that candidate has given Amazon permission). Each candidate has his or her own "product page" - which includes information about them and their platform. Perhaps not as advanced as PayDemocracy.com, but likely to get a lot more publicity. Now, imagine if you could use Amazon's affiliate program links for your favorite candidate?
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
–The Techdirt Team
