She will get very little out of the fight. The law favors the direct impact on consumers by Amazon's actions. She will have a very hard time proving that the customer has been harmed by the company. In fact if you look at what life was like before Amazon you will see that consumer was worst off. Things like very expensive overnight delivery, very expensive for merchants to go on line, low mix of available online products... etc. Additionally, traditionally monopoly law looks at how customers have been harmed. Again, customers have benefited because of Amazon. Also, there's no public push to fix Amazon. There will be a lot of noise coming from both sides but she will get very little concessions from Amazon. After all the ruckus, Amazon will mostly look and function the same.
I don't favor the strangle hold Amazon has on e-retail so I want Khan to win. Her best bet is to prove her case in academia and have it move towards her view so that the new generation of judges, law students, that are being trained now will change things ones they gain power.
