High market share isn't against the law. Abusing high market share to prevent competition is. What everybody fears about Amazon is that at some future point they *might* abuse their market power to hurt *consumers*.
Problem is, they aren't there yet and nobody has documented any actual consumer harm.
So any fed action against Amazon is wishful thinking.
