Business Practices and Ethical Responsibility

April 24

The acquisition and subsequent restructuring of MX Player assets by Amazon represents a consolidation effort that, while a common business tactic, raises concerns about reduced product accessibility and transparency. Limiting the streaming service's reach exclusively to India and suspending the Pro version can be seen as moves that diminish consumer choice and autonomy, potentially fostering conditions that allow for greater corporate control over digital media. Such centralization may contribute to broader trends of power consolidation that undermine democratic accountability.
