DC's contention is that the policy allows Amazon to exert anticompetitive pressure on sellers and the wider e-commerce ecosystem. Amazon's position is that it's no different from any storefront in deciding how to promote (or not) certain items. This should be interesting. — PolitiTweet.org

Central to understanding Amazon's reply is its Fair Pricing Policy, which states that Amazon may remove seller listings, give them less prominent placement on Amazon's site, or ban sellers in response to "pricing practices that harm customer trust." https://t.co/hcNzxXzjO7 https://t.co/B9vn8RjDQt — PolitiTweet.org

Right now it's just DC involved in the Amazon suit, Racine told reporters on a call a few minutes ago. He's not currently working with any state or federal officials on the issue and the complaint makes no allegations that Amazon has violated federal antitrust law. — PolitiTweet.org

By being unable to offer the same product on other e-commerce sites at a lower price, sellers have to bake in Amazon's fees for shoppers on, say, Walmart's website too, Racine alleges. — PolitiTweet.org

These higher prices exist, he alleges, because the price that sellers post on Amazon reflects the platform fees Amazon charges to its third-party sellers. — PolitiTweet.org

At issue are Amazon's terms that allegedly prohibit third-party sellers from offering their products on other websites at a lower price than on https://t.co/sDhpEV8lZp, which DC AG Karl Racine argues keeps prices inflated across the e-commerce market. — PolitiTweet.org

Some brief reflections from me on today’s closing: The judge expressed openness to the possibility that Apple may have engaged in anticompetitive conduct, but was more skeptical of Epic’s monopoly claims as well as its proposed remedies, voicing concern about appellate review. — PolitiTweet.org

Apparently the judge in a prior hearing joked about having a decision by Aug. 13 (the date last year when Epic released its Fortnite hotfix that kicked all of this off). She now says only some got the joke. “I am not promising to have this by Aug. 13 but I am going to try." — PolitiTweet.org

Epic says that’s misleading, and that its primary remedy calls for allowing for other app stores outside of the Apple app store, not a “store within a store within a store." — PolitiTweet.org

Apple raises the specter of a “store within a store within a store,” reiterating how apps within these other stores would be unaccountable to Apple and pose risks to consumers. — PolitiTweet.org

The judge is now going after Epic, asking how it can call for allowing sideloading in iOS when it has also sued Google, whose Android OS allows sideloading. Epic says just because you permit sideloading in iOS doesn’t turn iOS into Android, and it has other issues with Android. — PolitiTweet.org
