The FTC accuses Amazon of abusing its market dominance by forcing third-party sellers to accept high commissions and unreasonable restrictive terms while using platform algorithms to suppress competitors. Furthermore, Amazon leverages its private-label brands to further weaken the competitiveness of third-party sellers. These actions violate U.S. antitrust laws and are also considered unfair competition.
