For whatever reason HN seems to have a rather unhealthy obsession with Amazon that is evident in somewhat regular articles about Amazon’s dominance in the online retail space. Frankly it gets a little tiring after sometime , specially when walmart.com exists and these posts smells like some underhanded SEO type activities. Anyway hopefully HN moderators will take care of this before it becomes a tool in the hand of SEO agencies paid for by other companies.
- IncRnd 5y ago> Frankly it gets a little tiring after sometime , specially when walmart.com exists You didn't read the article, which demonstrates how Amazon's actions raise the prices at Wal-Mart.
- serf 5y agothe existence of a competitor is poor reasoning about whether or not monopolistic intention exists. When a single entity in the market can control and set the prices for the entire market it indicates an uneven shift in market power. Amazon has such market power at the moment, and this puts them at risk of committing monopolistic behaviors.
