Amazon Sues Washington to Stop Washington Post Records -Rigging in Bezos v. Bezos Battle

On By Littum

Two Jeff Bezos associated companies have squared in a state law in Washington when Amazon tried to limit the release of items requested for billionaire’s paper, Washington Post.

In one suit Filed Monday in King County Superior Court, asked Amazon to put the brakes on a Post Request from November on Files on Amazon’s project Kuiper, a plan to use low-track satellites to provide internet service and challenge SpaceX’s Starlink program.

The paper sought more information from state work and industrial regulators of a number of four on-site studies that took place between August and October 2024 on a Kuiper facility in the city of Redmond, according to court documents.

Amazon argued in a suit that it does not try to block the record release in general, but rather to ensure that material is not published that reveals trade secrets.

“Each aspect of the satellites, the propulsion system, their component parts and the constellation as a whole contains proprietary and commercial information,” the company argued in the archiving.

The independent have contacted Amazon’s lawyers in the suit and Washington Post to comment.

In 2021, Bezos announced that he pulled down as CEO of Amazon, which he founded, but remains the company’s executive chairman. The billionaire bought Post In 2013.

As Bezos acknowledged during the fall, in the middle of controversy that the paper pulled one endorsement of Kamala Harris who was Reportedly under development And instead refused to approve any candidate, his position as both businessman and news space leader occasionally creates for some awkeness.

“When it comes to the appearance of the conflict, I’m not an ideal owner of the post,” Bezos wrote in a meaning piece. “Every day, somewhere, some Amazon are executive or Blue Origin Executive or someone from the other philanthropis and businesses I own or invest in, meet with government officials. I once wrote that the post is a ‘complex leader’ for me. It is, but it turns out that I am also a complex leader for the post. “

Bezos was among the technical leaders who participated in Donald Trump’s inauguration.
