I know that amazon search was there also in 16.04 because it was my first distro and in my country i only briefly heard about amazon so it looked cool to me to have one button to order something but i never clicked on it because i tought it only works in rich countries or something. At that time i didnt gave a crap about privacy i was sold on it because i liked the design of unity and the fact that it looks different than school pcs with windows so it didnt remind me school
My non native english speaking ass imagined it like the shover head and hose and the valve will have open source design and would be repairable and you can 3d print new nozzles or something and i was like what is the issue with that i would take that anytime over my current one
