Product placement
Lyft: acts - it is the service the creator works for and uses to generate income. Removing it would change the video's premise.
Amazon storefront: appears - it is linked in the creator's bio and mentioned as a place to shop, but not directly interacted with or demonstrated. Removing it would not change what happens in the video.
