> I kind of feel like they need to adopt a labor-intensive zero-tolerance policy for this kind of stuff.

You can have a few scams, throw a ton of resources at each (to the point of prosecution, etc.) to deter that number from growing. Or you can have a huge number of scams. Well, absent any external force like government regulation this is true. It's also why I don't trust any large company to regulate themselves or their own markets appropriately; the distribution simply doesn't allow for outcomes that are strictly consumer focused. > Amazon just swung over to the other side, and if they don't get it under control How many times in history has a retail giant been able to exert this control themselves?
