Amazon urls default to embedding useless Kindle preview links that do not work on any device other than a Kindle. Is there a file I can edit or some code to prevent Amazon links from embedding?

As a temporary fix I edited class-wp-oembed.php and switched all instances of "amazon" in the public function __construct() lines to false.
