I think that's a different issue. Amazon has thorny problems with takedowns. Company A trying to get rival company B's listing taken down probably happens 100's of times a day. I believe Amazon uses "proof of purchase" kinda like a CAPTCHA or proof of work - an extra hoop to jump through to reduce the volume of these things they have to adjudicate.


It should be a term of service that you’re not allowed to interfere with other customer’s listings.

If I found out one of the tenants on my multi tenant system was trying to mess with another’s, I would be livid.
