Public bug reported:

A legal issue has been raised in Ubuntu Forums:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=12265658&postcount=12 - people
under the age of  18 may not use Amazon without parental agreement and
alcohol listings have further requirements:

"If you are under 18, you may use the Amazon Services only with
involvement of a parent or guardian. Alcohol listings on Amazon are
intended for adults. You must be at least 21 years of age to purchase
alcohol, or use any site functionality related to alcohol." as specified
at  http://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html/?nodeId=508088 ,
under the your account section.

Clearly, Ubuntu doesn't prevent minors (or people under 21) to use the
shopping lens.
