Amazon has contested against new legislation that could mean it will be forced to reveal and investigate the identities of its third-party sellers according to Axios.
The legislation, called INFORM, would also require Amazon amongst other ecommerce companies to verify seller’s identities as well as provide customers with their contact details.
Amazon has led calls for the laws to be ditched as it argues it would jeopardise third-party sellers’ privacy, however, the act has been supported by retailers such as Home Deport and Walgreens.
