The mysterious and highly redacted "Project Nessie" seen in FTC antitrust allegations has been revealed to be exactly what we thought it was.

    Go ahead and tell the FTC that you know the law better than they do.

      let them tell you https://www.ftc.gov/advice-guidance/competition-guidance/guide-antitrust-laws/dealings-competitors/price-fixing

      Price fixing is an agreement (written, verbal, or inferred from conduct) among competitors to raise, lower, maintain, or stabilize prices or price levels. Generally, the antitrust laws require that each company establish prices and other competitive terms on its own, without agreeing with a competitor.

        And yet, they are the ones accusing Amazon of price fixing.

        Like I said, go tell them that they got it wrong.
