Amazon sues sellers for submitting fake takedown requests against competitors
Amazon`s Counterfeit Crimes Unit (CCU) filed lawsuits against multiple groups that submitted thousands of false copyright infringement claims against Amazon`s selling partners in an effort to have those sellers and their products removed from the Amazon store.
Amazon said it is working to provide selling partners the tools they need to help protect their intellectual property rights, and a key tool in that effort is the Amazon Brand Registry. (Photo credit: Reuters)
