"We have nowhere else to go and Amazon know it." The FTC and states are going after Amazon, largely for stopping merchants from offering discounts elsewhere.
Is it the FTC’s fault at all? Lina Khan is doing great work, and the US has fought against Microsoft’s monopoly before. The real problem is the judicial system has no interest in joining this fight.
Lol FTC is a fucking joke in this country. Nothings going to happen
Amazon is just gonna drag it out until they get a favorable administration to give them a sweetheart settlement.
Like Microsoft did.
Thats not what MS did at all, but okay.
That’s exactly what Microsoft successfully did.
Cory Doctorow says this is the best FTC we’ve had in 40 years, and Lisa Khan is “doing the Lord’s work”. I trust him implicitly on such matters.
With all well-earned respect to Doctorow, that bar is pretty low when it comes to antitrust.
If they don’t finish before the next presidential term there’s a good chance Trump will replace everyone.
A lot of conjecture here.
“If” and “a good chance”. 😞
If you aren’t taking the possibility seriously you really haven’t been paying attention 🙄
