So, I just got an email from Amazon refunding me the purchase of lint-free wipes I bought for screen and lens cleaning. I didn’t request the refund, they initiated it, but their reasoning seems hilarious to me:
We have identified that the product that you purchased may not be safe for viewing a solar eclipse. If you still have this product, out of an abundance of caution, we recommend you not to use it to watch any solar eclipses, including the one happening on March 29. Please dispose of this product.
The product:
Are people actually watching solar eclipses through lint-free wipes? Anyway, I lol’d and thought I’d share it with you all to brighten your day.
TL;DR don’t use lint-free wipes to watch solar eclipses. You’ve been warned!
Maybe because there’s some kind of search that people are doing like “eclipse lens” and the word “eclipse” is written in the box. People don’t read manuals and the general public is stupid.
