Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos called to testify on company’s business practices

The United States House Judiciary Committee has sent a letter to Amazon CEO and founder Jeff Bezos calling on him to appear before the Committee to testify about the company’s business practices.

The letter cites a recent report by the Wall Street Journal that had claimed that Amazon employees had access to third-party seller data in order to create similar private-label products.

According to the report, over 20 former employees of Amazon’s private-label business and documents reviewed by WSJ had revealed that the tech giant had provided access to independent sellers’ sales data to its employees for developing competing private-label products.
