Honestly, it's about time we see a crackdown on companies that act like they're "too big to bother" when it comes to obeying the law and shutting down criminal activity. The problem is that the likes of Google, Facebook and Amazon have decided their sites/communities are too big to moderate properly, and have just been left as a hotbed of obviously illegal activity. Like Amazon, which is filled to the rafters with scams, counterfeit products and products that blatantly ignore safety regulations in every country they're sold in.

There needs to be an understanding that having millions of customers doesn't mean you're immune to the law and can just happily ignore all the obvious scams and crimes being committed on your platforms.
