> "The investigation found that Amazon feeds non-public seller data, such as the number of products ordered and the sellers' revenues, into its own retail algorithms to help it decide which new products to launch and the price of each new offer, Vestager said on Tuesday."

Yeah, how is this any different from any store launching in house brands for cheaper than name branded products?

For example, CVS has blatantly copied half of Cerave's products for example. Furthermore, because of COVID Amazon's a big deal in most of Europe. Brick and mortar is hurting, city centers are pretty much deserted in all but larger cities.

This could come as short sighted but seems like Germany and France are doing this because they want to shake down Amazon for more tax money and they don’t like that American companies are dominating European markets to such an extent.
