Amazon owned Twitch un-bans Trump’s channel suspended for ‘hateful conduct’

Twitch, the livestreaming platform, recently suspended President Donald Trump’s channel for “hateful conduct,” in what appeared to be the first deliberate suspension of one of Trump’s social media accounts.
The site, which is owned by Amazon, said two recent streams on Trump’s channel violated its rules. One stream was of a rebroadcasted 2015 campaign event in which Trump made comments about Mexico sending drugs, crime and rapists over the border. The other was of his recent rally in Tulsa, Oklahoma, where he talked about a “very tough hombre” breaking into a woman’s house at 1 a.m.
“Hateful conduct is not allowed on Twitch,” a Twitch spokesperson said in a statement. “In line with our policies, President Trump’s channel has been issued a temporary suspension from Twitch for comments made on stream, and the offending content has been removed.”
With its move, Twitch went further than other social media platforms. In recent months, some tech companies have become more proactive in handling speech issues by Trump and his supporters. Twitter began adding labels to some of the president’s tweets; Snap has said it will stop promoting Trump’s Snapchat account; and Reddit on Monday said it would ban “The_Donald” community, which had been a highly influential digital gathering place for Trump’s acolytes.
But unlike those efforts, Twitch directly clamped down on the president himself, temporarily shutting down his ability to post videos on a channel. The only other time Trump had one of his social media accounts suspended was by accident in 2017, when his Twitter account was unexpectedly disabled by a rogue contractor who was leaving Twitter that day.
Twitch now unbanned Trump’s account, which is available again.
Europe top court rules Amazon should not sell third party knock-off Louboutin shoes

Amazon could be held responsible when third-party sellers misuse trademarks on its site.
The European Court of Justice (ECJ) made the ruling on Thursday, after courts in Belgium and Luxembourg asked for its opinion on a case raised by French shoemaker Christian Louboutin in 2019.
Louboutin argued that Amazon was breaching trademark rights by capitalising on its trademark red sole and enabling third-party sellers to offer “identical” products without the brand’s consent.
“Amazon itself makes use of the sign registered by Louboutin where the user of its site has the impression that it is Amazon which is marketing, in its name and on its behalf, shoes of the trademark,” said an ECJ press statement.
The ruling could cause more brands to challenge Amazon.
While the ECJ has made its stance clear, it does not decide the final result of the case, which is being taken back to the courts in Luxembourg and Belgium.
The verdict does not decide the Louboutin case, which will revert back to the courts in Luxembourg and Belgium. But the opinion is binding in the EU from now on.
Despite still awaiting the final outcome, Louboutin chief Alexis Mourot seems to be taking it as a win anyway.
“This is a victory for all the brands that defend their expertise,” he said in a statement.
The result will likely have repercussions for how Amazon displays products from third parties on its site, in the wake of many major brands’ ongoing concerns about counterfeit products.

Amazon said in an official press statement it had reached an agreement with certain lenders to provide their company an $8 billion unsecured loan.
The term loan will mature in 364 days, with an option to extend for another 364 days and the proceeds would be used for general corporate purposes.
“Given the uncertain macroeconomic environment, over the last few months we have used different financing options to support capital expenditures, debt repayments, acquisitions, and working capital needs,” an Amazon spokesperson told in a statement.
Amazon has been bracing for likely slower growth, as soaring inflation forces businesses and consumers to cut back spending. That, coupled with a strong greenback, dragged Amazon’s shares about 50% lower in 2022.
It had also flagged workforce reductions in early 2023, without specifying the number. A source informed in November that the company was targeting about 10,000 job cuts.
Amazon had about $35 billion in cash and cash equivalents and long-term debt of about $59 billion at the end of the third quarter ended Sept. 30.
Toronto Dominion was the administrative agent for the loan agreement in which DBS Bank and Mizuho Bank were among lenders, Amazon said.

Amazon employee is charged with stealing over $300K worth of merchandise while working in a FBA warehouse

Memphis Police Department arrested an Amazon employee for allegedly stealing over $300,000 worth of merchandise.
According to the affidavit, Devan Thomas, 26, stole $325,325 worth of merchandise: Apple and Samsung phones, Nintendo consoles, cellular phone accessories, jewelry, watches, computer parts, and gaming consoles.
Thomas was caught after Amazon’s loss prevention team began investigating theft in the area where Thomas was generally assigned during his workday.
Digital evidence linked Thomas to the thefts and Thomas gave the loss prevention team a written statement saying he “made a choice of taking items away from the customers and outside the building,” according to his arrest affidavit.
Thomas was charged with theft of property greater than $250,000.
MPD says the suspect gave a written confession stating he decided to steal the items.
Thomas started working at Amazon’s warehouse on New Allen Road in Nov. 2020.
