Because the Post Office is a (now quazi-)Governmental function and can pass laws regarding its use. OOPS is a private company.
In a similar vein, you can be convicted of mail fraud if you use the U.S. Mail to deliver a Nigeria Scam letter, but you cannot be convicted of mail fraud if it is delivered by FedEx. (You can still be convicted of fraud, but just not "mail fraud.")
Hmmmm that makes me wonder. 3 purchases in a row last year arrived the next day even though I wasn’t Prime and I went for the free “slow boat” shipping. I joked at the time because I was considering Prime but if they were just gonna ship everything next day anyway... of course then we went Prime for the stream. Wonder if they were testing the preship.

It can also be inferred if the user routinely orders the same product over time such as paper products, etc. However, I bet the user needs to opt-in or opt-out of this program.
Amazon food shopping has a number of advantages. Single serve organic milk or soy milk is hard to find at our grocery store in a volume large enough to stock kids’ lunches for a week. Or a 12 or 18 flat from Amazon, and you’re done. Order two weeks worth, and there is no shipping charge.
They may have a patent for anticipatory shipping, but legally they can’t ship you things you haven’t ordered and demand that you pay for it unless you set up a subscription.
Hmm....how would they prove patent infringement?

In deciding what to ship, Amazon said it may consider previous orders, product searches, wish lists, shopping-cart contents, returns and even how long an Internet user’s cursor hovers over an item.
This sounds a tad invasive, but I'm not quite ready to take my business elsewhere.
Criminal complaints of people being sent stuff they didn’t ordered, so now Amazon can sue criminals based on the criminal charges.
I hate it when that happens.
Zahpod Beeblebrox was booked.
He defined the role for a lot of us 80’s sci-fi types.
Amazon does, however support universal state sales taxing of internet purchases. The fact that they already have the infrastructure in place to collect and remit such taxes to all states and territories while many of their smaller competitors would have to make major capital outlays or go out of business is just a coincidence, I’m sure.
But if you know where your order is, then you won't know when it's going to arrive.
