I think Warren is fantastic but I feel like her argument for Amazon is flawed and I'm curious to hear counter arguments.
In her example of Amazon being a platform and information aggregator, wouldn't a brick & mortar grocery chain like Safeway/Vons/CVS be guilty of the same anti-competitive practices when they sell "Safeway Brand Fruity Os" next to Kellogg Fruit Loops?
Businesses seem to have been able to be platforms and information aggregators for a very long time and we've had plenty of innovation and competition
