I was thinking the same, there are known automated strategies to catch copy cats or just bad writing.
However I’m guessing having a big inventory is more valuable than quality. That could be amazon’s cultural motivation to dismiss quality by default
- bambax 8y agoThe scam books are not just "bad writing" and usually don't rip off other works; many of them are filled with pure garbage: random letters that form non-words. But maybe you're right, the size of the inventory is what matters to Amazon who may be stuck in a "growth at all costs" mentality. That would explain it in part.
- scarface74 8y agoThat should make it even easier. If X number of words don’t appear in a dictionary, then it’s a scam. Amazon also has a natural language processing platform. If it can’t parse X percentage of sentences, it’s a scam.
