We Tracked a Shipment of Rare Books. It Ended at an Amazon AI Training Facility
404 Media investigated with an AirTag!
In July, one bookseller told me they received a very large order of around 1,000 books on Biblio, one of these marketplaces. The seller agreed to put an Apple AirTag provided by 404 Media in one of the books included in this order so we could see where the book was going. And by extension, which company, AI or otherwise, was behind this massive order.
The book ended up delivered to the VGT3 corner of the LAS8 Amazon facility in the north east of Las Vegas, where the entrance carried this on-the-nose logo of a dinosaur with a book!

Online forum discussions between Amazon workers confirmed that VGT3 destructively scans large volumes of books.
