Amazon Faces Multiple Lawsuits Over Prime Video Fee Changes

Amazon is facing a class-action lawsuit over its decision to add advertisements to its previously ad-free Prime Video service and charge an additional fee for ad-free streaming. The lawsuit accuses the company of breach of contract and false advertising, seeking $5 million in compensation for deceived users. Amazon's rationale for the fee hike is to fund original programming, but the lawsuit argues that the company misled subscribers about the ad-free nature of the service included in their Prime subscription.
