DC Sues Amazon for Alleged Delivery Discrimination in Black Neighborhoods

The District of Columbia has sued Amazon, alleging the company secretly stopped providing its fastest delivery services to two predominantly Black neighborhoods while still charging for Prime memberships that promise such benefits. The lawsuit claims Amazon did not inform affected customers of the change, which led to slower deliveries, and accuses the company of deceptive practices. Amazon defends its actions, citing driver safety concerns, and denies any discriminatory intent. The district seeks to prohibit Amazon's alleged unfair practices and demands restitution for affected members.
