Well let’s not pretend counterfeit and fraud are only (edit) an Amazon problem. Go to Walmart.com and search for “Pokemon” - 4 of the top 5 results are counterfeit cards. I emailed them 2 weeks ago about it, and by “them” I mean most of their executives, got a response from about it, yet nothing’s been done.

- abrylov 5y agoThat doesn’t make this OK. Furthermore, if a book was published through Amazon’s own publishing program they already know who is the owner and who is not and could actually solve this fast and efficiently. Also, infringement is not a victimless crime and while humans can more easily discount its affect on large corporations (in your example with Pokémon), this really affects individual authors that try to make a living off of their talent.
- yowlingcat 5y agoDon't you mean "let's not pretend counterfeit and fraud are _strictly_ an Amazon problem"? All this proves is that it's also Walmart's problem as well.
- bluedevil2k 5y agoYes, you're correct. I've updated my comment
