After Parler, Amazon to remove QAnon products from platform after US Capitol storm

Amazon.com Inc on Monday said it was working to remove some QAnon products from its online marketplace, citing policies that prohibit offensive items or other inappropriate content.

The world’s largest online retailer drew scrutiny for having apparel with QAnon insignia and related books up for sale days after QAnon followers joined last week’s siege of the US Capitol, which left five people dead.

QAnon backers have pushed conspiracies on social media based on web postings from the anonymous “Q,” citing insider knowledge of US President Donald Trump’s administration. These include the baseless claim that Trump secretly is fighting a cabal of child-sex predators, among them prominent Democrats and figures in Hollywood.
