There is absolutely nothing out of the ordinary in the behaviour described. It is in fact the normal way such things are handled. Do you say that company's don't submit their legal arguments to the regulatory authorities? Do you further say that any argument advanced in such a brief must then be ignored and not presented in any action taken? Certainly, Amazon, like any large company, would wish to exploit any contacts they did have, just as Apple would. But there is absolutely no indication that anything improper or even out of the ordinary has occurred here.
I don't think we are going to agree on this and we are probably fast approaching the stage where we must agree to disagree for fear of boring our fellow members.

It isn't the normal way things are handled according to my sister the Federal lawyer. She does this stuff for a living. You file a complaint, you don't file a legal brief.
