This administration selected the current FTC commissioner because of an op-ed attacking Amazon and a glowing profile both published in the New York Times.

The FTC lawsuits against Meta and now Amazon are politically motivated and are a misuse of the the system if not outright corruption.

Good. As someone who hasn't been careful enough and been caught by Amazon's deceptive practices myself, I hope they get them as good and hard as the law allows. If they have to put a boot on Bezos's spaceship, that would be an amusing benefit of the whole thing.

I don't appreciate being subject to one dark pattern after another just to buy an sd card or a bath towel.
