Perplexity, the billion dollar AI company that has plagiarized us and other outlets, is now in hot water with Amazon for arguably illegal business practices.

      They can ban them for TOS violations. Good luck suing.

          They can identify new accounts with the same behavior patterns easily enough if they really want to. Amazon can absolutely shut them down.

          I meant they have no recourse against Amazon refusing to host them.
