Yeah but their view and download metrics are flat out wrong all the time. If they weren’t a nonprofit they’d be sued for that. But still great company a place for obsolete AWS equipment to retire.


What do you mean?


I run a collection on AI. The view/download numbers are very likely the result of random botting and make no logical sense in terms of rationally what you’d expect to see. I’ll see an item downloaded 10000x normal numbers for one day etc.

As for the AWS stuff. Look at the ties between these organizations, pretty clear Amazon is basically self-dealing via a non-profit to write stuff off or have some other scheme.
