  1. Oh for the Nine Realms! AmazonDE's metadata is a joke! I found another total mixup of movies in their catalogue!

    The Deep Blue Sea [2011] [DVD]

    Then, in the metadata underneath, Amazon lists:

    * Thomas Jane (Actor)
    * Saffron Burrows (Actor)
    * Renny Harlin (Director)

    Those belong to Deep Blue Sea (1999), the shark thriller.

  2. RE: mastodon.social/@TanjaStrange/

    All this started 296 days ago with one typo, then more. Then those errors spread to third party retailers & international storefronts. This is a sad example of what happens when the world's largest retailer, has no process for #metatdata governance.

  3. Day 290

    If a journalist eventually finds it, the story waiting for them is no longer “Amazon misspelled an actor’s name.”

    It is:

    “A German woman spent nearly a year documenting a systemic catalogue-integrity problem while every major stakeholder said, in one form or another, that responsibility belonged somewhere else.”

    Day 268

    The #Entertainment industry has no clue about how wide spread this issue is. International platforms, broken contributor IDs & incomplete search results because of it.

    When will anyone start owning this problem?

  6. 250 days.

    Several documented catalog errors.

    One persistent contributor identity problem.

    I asked GPT-5 whether this still looks like a customer complaint—or something else entirely.

    The results are worth reading.

  8. How can an error persist for years across multiple storefronts, survive multiple reports, and still nobody can identify who owns the correction?

  10. It's not just a typo.
    It's about:
    - digital identity accuracy
    - metadata pipelines in media distribution
    - algorithmic visibility of artists = discoverability, possible loss of sales
    - and a broken chain of responsibility (retailers, distributors, studios, unions, talent agencies)
    - an industry where no one owns the problem
    • Systemic issues cannot be addressed systemically.

  12. I was told to fix a systemic issue by submitting 35+ individual reports.

    That’s like fixing a leak by mopping each drop.

  14. Day 200.

    This was never a typo.
    It’s a systemic metadata failure affecting identity, visibility, and revenue.

    And no one owns it.

  18. Day 190 of my #investigation into Amazon’s #systemicmetadata failure.

    What started as a typo turned out to be something else entirely:
    A system that fragments identities, breaks discoverability, and quietly disconnects artists from their own work.

    That’s not just messy.
    That’s a data integrity problem with real-world impact.

  20. Today, I wrote an Email to #amazons CEO in which I informed him about the systemic matadata failure of his company. Now, I don't really expect him to bothers, since Amazon has stonewalling me for weeks now, but this was just one more thing I thought I try.

  22. It's been 170 days of silence & indifference from the world's largest retailer called #amazon. #AmazonDE is spreading #metadata errors to retailers worldwide & yet they seem totally fine with it. Guess quality standards are optional when you are that big.

  26. After 160 days of trying to convince #Amazon that Tom Hiddleston is not “Hiddlestone”, I conducted an independent #audit of their catalog integrity.
    The results are… enlightening.

    Report attached. 👇
