    Amazon.com, Inc.

    [1] (/ˈæməzɒn/ AM-ə-zon) is an American multinational technology
    company focusing on e-commerce, cloud computing, online advertising, digital streaming,
    and artificial intelligence. It has been referred to as "one of the most influential economic and
    cultural forces in the world",[5] and is one of the world's most valuable brands.[6] It is one of the Big
    Five American information technology companies, alongside Alphabet, Apple, Meta,
    and Microsoft.
    Amazon was founded by Jeff Bezos from his garage in Bellevue, Washington,[7] on July 5, 1994.
    Initially an online marketplace for books, it has expanded into a multitude of product categories, a
    strategy that has earned it the moniker The Everything Store.[8] It has
    multiple subsidiaries including Amazon Web Services (cloud computing), Zoox (autonomous
    vehicles), Kuiper Systems (satellite Internet), and Amazon Lab126 (computer hardware R&D). Its
    other subsidiaries include Ring, Twitch, IMDb, and Whole Foods Market. Its acquisition of Whole
    Foods in August 2017 for US$13.4 billion substantially increased its footprint as a physical
    retailer.[9]
    Amazon has earned a reputation as a disruptor of well-established industries through
    technological innovation and "aggressive" reinvestment of profits into capital expenditures.[10][11][12]
    [13]
     As of 2022, it is the world's largest online retailer and marketplace, smart
    speaker provider, cloud computing service through AWS,[14] live-streaming service through
    Twitch, and Internet company as measured by revenue and market share.[15] In 2021, it
    surpassed Walmart as the world's largest retailer outside of China, driven in large part by its paid
    subscription plan, Amazon Prime, which has over 200 million subscribers worldwide.[16][17] It is
    the second-largest private employer in the United States.[18]
    Amazon also distributes a variety of downloadable and streaming content through its Amazon
    Prime Video, Amazon Music, Twitch, and Audible units. It publishes books through its publishing
    arm, Amazon Publishing, film and television content through Amazon Studios, and has been the
    owner of film and television studio Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer since March 2022. It also
    produces consumer electronics—most notably, Kindle e-readers, Echo devices, Fire tablets,
    and Fire TVs.
    Amazon has been criticized for customer data collection practices,[19] a toxic work culture,[20] tax
    avoidance,[21][22] and anti-competitive behavior.[23][24]
