Mexican regulators recommend that Amazon wall off Prime TV, reveal its algorithms and open delivery
MEXICO CITY (AP) — Mexican regulators have recommended that online retailers Amazon and Mercado Libre reveal their algorithms and wall off TV streaming to avoid stifling competition. Mexico’s Federal Commission on Economic Competition said in a preliminary finding that the two firms control 85% of online marketplace sales in Mexico. It said that market dominance created “an absence of real competitive conditions in the online retail market.” For Amazon, the finding was the latest in a string of regulatory challenges it has faced in its countries of operation. The commission’s recommendation also covers the biggest Latin American online retailer, the Uruguay-based firm Mercado Libre.
