What do you mean with this? I haven't used Amazon in a while so I have no idea what shenanigans they've gotten up to
Captchas everywhere, you get logged out always, need a phone number etc.
That's how you know it's working!
Really? I haven't seen that. No Captchas ever I think.
The phone number could be for the 2FA but no idea, I don't think I have seen it, for 2FA I have the usual authenticator, that said they have my phone for sure at least for shipping but maybe I did get asked for it and I don't remember, they have it for shipping anyway so....
But logged out... no issues there if anything it works like Facebook where not sure what they have but the session last forever....
Of course I am using my Amazon from Spain there might be differences, like just due the laws alone I expect differences on the American one.
Delete all cookies but exceptions in the firefox privacy settings
Set security mode to strict
Use noscript and you know what they do, remove all the allowed ones and all scripts from default, disable "LAN" and "others" from "trusted" and opt-in manually
Privacy is manual work. Noscript is great, but for sure takes getting used to.
