Amazon Proposes Changes to Improve Marketplace Fairness in the UK

  Amazon, the owner, and operator of the e-commerce platform Amazon Marketplace, has offered to change how it treats third-party sellers in response to competition concerns raised by the technology giant. In 2019, an estimated 280,000 independent sellers used Marketplace to connect with customers.  

Ensuring Fairness for Third-Party Sellers

The CMA launched an investigation in July 2022 after suspecting that Amazon had infringed the Chapter II prohibition of the Competition Act 1998 (CA98), which prohibits one or more undertakings from abusing a dominant position that may affect trade within the UK or part of it. The CMA believes that accepting these commitments will ensure third-party sellers' product offers have a fair chance of being prominently displayed to customers in the 'Buy Box' (also known as the 'Offer Display') on Amazon's product pages. The 'Buy Box' provides customers with one-click options to 'Buy Now' or 'Add to Basket' in relation to items from a specific seller.   Addressing Competition Concerns The CMA's preliminary view is that Amazon's offer addresses its competition concerns, and they are now consulting on the commitments they put forward before deciding whether to accept them. According to Statista, Amazon's net UK sales amounted to nearly $30 billion in 2022, making the UK its second-largest European market. Formal acceptance of the commitments would result in the CMA not continuing its investigation and not proceeding to a decision on whether the CA98 has been infringed. The CMA's decision on accepting binding commitments will not include any statement as to whether or not Amazon's conduct has infringed the CA98.  

Proposed Commitments to Address Concerns

Amazon's offer includes several commitments to address the CMA's competition concerns: - Fair Data Usage: Amazon will not use data obtained from third-party sellers to gain an unfair advantage over other sellers, helping its retail business make important commercial decisions based on third-party sellers' data. - Equal 'Buy Box' Treatment: Amazon will treat all product offers equally when determining which ones appear in the 'Buy Box.' This move addresses concerns that products offered by third-party sellers were less likely to feature in the 'Buy Box' than similar offers from either Amazon's own retail business or third-party sellers using Amazon's delivery services. - Independent Negotiation: Third-party businesses using Marketplace can negotiate their rates directly with independent providers of Prime delivery services, potentially leading to lower delivery costs for customers. - Independent Trustee Oversight: Amazon will appoint an independent trustee responsible for monitoring the company's compliance with these commitments. The CMA will have a direct say in this appointment, ensuring they have the necessary skills and expertise for the job.  

A Step Towards Fair Competition

Ann Pope, Senior Director for Enforcement at the CMA, expressed optimism about Amazon's commitments, believing they will level the playing field for third-party sellers and ultimately benefit UK customers. The CMA's consultation on the proposed commitments will help determine if they adequately address the concerns.   A Path to Timely Changes The CMA is now consulting on Amazon's proposed commitments. If they accept them, it would avoid having to pursue a potentially lengthy investigation and lead to earlier changes benefiting businesses and consumers. At this stage of the investigation, the CMA has not found any infringement of competition law. The consultation is open and will close on 1 September 2023.   Sources: THX News, Cyber Crew & Competition and Markets Authority.  Read the full article

The Real Reason Facebook Took Over Social Media (Hint: It’s Not Just the Newsfeed) Discover how Facebook’s 2004 launch reshaped global communication—transforming a simple campus project into a social media powerhouse that connects billions every day. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3o4B5eoAcewBjxvaeC5Rxg?sub_confirmation=1 Facebook’s story begins in a Harvard dorm room in 2004, where Mark Zuckerberg and his college roommates set out to build a platform for students to connect online. Early features like the Newsfeed and Groups sparked a new kind of digital gathering, allowing users to keep tabs on friends, find classmates, and share moments in real time. This campus-focused platform quickly spread beyond Harvard’s gates, becoming a phenomenon at universities across the United States. By 2006, Facebook opened its doors to the public, transforming the way people interact worldwide. Its user-friendly design made signing up easy, and its features—posting statuses, photos, and joining special interest groups—helped billions adopt the idea of sharing their lives online. With each expansion, Facebook introduced new tools that shaped online discourse, including Pages for businesses, the Messenger platform, and eventually, a robust advertising system. Over time, Facebook’s influence grew so massive that it’s often credited with igniting a social media revolution. It introduced an entirely new era of digital interaction where people could swiftly engage, discover news, and even mobilize for causes. Yet, like any transformative technology, Facebook’s journey wasn’t without challenges: questions arose over privacy, content moderation, and data usage. Despite these hurdles, the platform remains a central hub for global communication and community building. Today, Facebook stands as a testament to the power of social media. It continues to adapt through acquisitions like Instagram and WhatsApp, and through evolving user features like Live video broadcasts, Watch, and virtual reality integrations. In doing so, it reaffirms its role as a driver of human connection—proving that an idea born in a single dorm room can influence the world at large. 📂 For The Latest Stories on luxury travel, getaways goods, the rich, companies, Top 10’s, biographies, Lavish History, news, and more 📂 https://www.youtube.com/@Lavishangle 🎉 For business enquires contact us at full4sog (@) gmail dot com 💬 Don't forget to leave your thoughts in the comments below.

You can, however, own and operate a still to process alcohol for fuel--with proper permits. Moonshine distribution, on the other hand, is legal if you've gone through the red tape to get the proper permits. --according to https://www.wideopeneats.com/commercial-distillers-make-moonshine-can/ This Site is affiliated with Monumetric (dba for The Blogger Network, LLC) for the purposes of placing advertising on the Site, and Monumetric will collect and use certain data for advertising purposes.

It?s perfectly legal to own a still, and you can even use it, as long as you?re not making alcohol ? so, you can make essential oils without a permit, or perfume, or distilled water. Making ethanol for fuel use at home is also legal, provided you obtain a permit from the TTB. Home fuel permits are?reportedly not difficult?to get, but TTB agents are allowed to visit your production area to make sure you?re not drinking the stuff. Making alcohol for drinking, however, is a whole different beast. According to federal law, making beverage alcohol at home is illegal, plain and simple. --according to https://thewhiskeywash.com/whiskey-styles/american-whiskey/why-is-distlling-whiskey-home-illegal/ The production of?moonshine?? or really any spirit ? without a license is prohibited by the U.S. government and is very much?illegal.?Federal law states that it is legal to own a still of any size. However, be advised it is illegal to distill alcohol without having either a "distilled spirits permit" or a "federal fuel alcohol permit." It does not matter if the alcohol is for personal use only, not for sale, etc.   Is Moonshine Illegal in my State? State laws vary widely regarding the legality of home distilling. In some states it is illegal to own a still while in other states it is not. Sometimes it is legal to own the still, but you may be charged a small fine for creating and producing alcohol. Still titles and permits may be required if the Federal Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau requests them.
