Amazon ha detto di smettere di controllare i prezzi e di pagare 70 milioni di dollari in Germania

*From Bloomberg News:*

Amazon must stop enforcing price controls for retailers on its German marketplace, according to the nation’s antitrust watchdog, which also seized €59 million from the Big Tech company.

That amount is how much Amazon is estimated to have made via the illicit practice.

Germany’s Federal Cartel Office said it told Amazon that its retailer pricing policy violates rules governing the digital economy and fair competition. Amazon either removes products from its marketplace or does not feature them if their prices are deemed too high, according to the Cartel Office, whose guidelines stipulate these such mechanisms are only allowed in exceptional cases like price gouging.
