The U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC) is preparing to file a major antitrust lawsuit against Amazon's online marketplace in the coming weeks, according to Bloomberg. The FTC is expected to accuse Amazon of leveraging its market power to favor sellers who use its logistics services and punish those who don't. The complaint, which has been honed over several months, would represent the FTC's most significant challenge to Amazon so far.
Earlier this month, the FTC sued Amazon over its Prime service, accusing the company of enrolling millions of consumers into the subscription without their consent and making it difficult for them to cancel.
