亚马逊因涉嫌误导性Prime会员注册行为面临联邦贸易委员会审判

摘要

西雅图一场联邦审判审查亚马逊被指误导客户注册Prime会员并使取消过程变得困难的指控。

本周，西雅图开始了一场联邦审判，审理亚马逊被指采用欺骗性手段将客户注册为Prime会员，并随后使取消流程变得复杂的指控。联邦贸易委员会（FTC）于2023年提起诉讼，指控亚马逊使用“暗模式”——即操控性用户界面设计——诱使消费者自动续订Prime会员。FTC认为，亚马逊的设计选择导致了非自愿的注册，并且公司故意使取消流程复杂化以保留订阅者。亚马逊否认这些指控，声称其明确披露了Prime的条款，并提供了简单明了的取消方式。此次审判的结果可能对基于订阅的服务和消费者保护标准产生重大影响。
