Get cheap tickets to TNW2020 right nowAn Amazon Dating site cropped up this week, and it looks almost exactly like you’d imagine such a site would look like were it actually Bezos’s company making it. Its GUI looks almost exactly like that of Amazon‘s desktop site, with the smorgasbord of products replaced with smiling human faces.[Read: Scam victims warn fake accounts will ruin Facebook’s dating site]As satire goes, this one is pretty elaborate. It’ll no doubt give you a smile if you’re just glancing at it, but once you look at it for a few minutes, it starts to look pretty damned creepy.NEW from Amazon 🚨A dating site to help you with #ValentinesDay lol 💕 https://t.co/1M0lPRn90B— Product Hunt (@ProductHunt) February 5, 2020It was created by Ani Acopian, Suzy Shinn, Morgan Gruer, and Thinko. As in, this would be funny if it didn’t also feel like, um, the future.I’m exaggerating, of course, but Facebook’s already put its hat into the dating ring, despite the fact that it’s blatantly unsuited to the inducement of healthy human romance — I don’t need to think about what it’d look like if Amazon decided to do the same thing.
