If you saw the article yesterday about counterfit Nests still for sale and Amazon taking no action, I think it's actually worse than that.

Banning competition you don't like is monoploistic for sure, but intentionally leaving counterfitters versions up and promoting them to searchers for those products so it damages your competitors brand is just straight up evil.

Sorry, I got this mixed up with the counterfeit chromecast devices that Amazon is ignoring. Its hard to keep track of all the anti-competitive stuff Amazon is doing lately. ;-)

Is it intentional though? Like the old proverb goes--never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.
