Amazon Probed by British Competition Watchdog_我的网站

学警狙击

A | E-commerce giant Amazon is under investigation by the UK's competition watchdog over claims it favors its own warehouses over third-party sellers.,The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) will look into whether customers are getting a "worse deal" due to the online retailer giving an unfair advantage to its retail arm or sellers who use its services in the Amazon UK Marketplace.,In particular, the probe will examine how Amazon uses third-party retailers' data and its criteria for access to the "Amazon Prime" service, which includes free deliveries. It will also look at how Amazon decides which company's product has the privilege of featuring in the instant "Buy Box" on the website's home page.,"Millions of people across the UK rely on Amazon's services for fast delivery of all types of products at the click of a button," said CMA general counsel Sarah Cardell. "This is an important area so it's right that we carefully investigate whether Amazon is using third-party data to give an unfair boost to its own retail business and whether it favours sellers who use its logistics and delivery services - both of which could weaken competition.",Bezos’ $500M Megayacht Stranded After Dutch Firm Abandons Bid to Dismantle Rotterdam Bridge3 July, 04:03 GMT,"Thousands of UK businesses use Amazon to sell their products and it is important they are able to operate in a competitive market," Cardell added. "Any loss of competition is a loss to consumers and could lead to them paying more for products, being offered lower quality items or having less choice.",Billionaire Amazon founder Jeff Bezos also owns the liberal US Washington Post newspaper. The company has been criticized for its treatment of warehouse staff and its resistance to recognizing trade unions.。 8月25日消息，银河航天官方今日发文，北京时间8月25日11时21分，长征六号丙运载火箭在太原卫星发射中心发射升空，一箭七星全部顺利入轨，其中中科卫星14星、中科卫星15星、银河航天灵知09泰国立方星三颗卫星均由银河航天研制。

B | 最受关注的是灵知09泰国立方星（GISTDA Cube Sat 1），这颗卫星由银河航天抓总研制，用户方为泰国科技部指导的官方机构泰国地理信息与空间技术发展局（GISTDA）。主要为泰方提供国土、农业、生态等地表遥感数据收集服务，并支撑泰国高校开展卫星设计研制、航天测控、遥感应用等实践教学。这是中国商业航天卫星企业首次面向东南亚国家完成整星研制、发射及在轨交付，也是银河航天首次完成整星及地面系统出口，在一带一路共建国家落地应用。事实上，这笔订单卖的不只是一颗卫星，银河航天为GISTDA提供了整星加地面系统加能力培养的一体化解决方案，先后多次组织泰方人员来华集中培训，又派出专业团队赴泰国实地教学，建设调试地面系统，让泰方从使用卫星进阶到理解卫星。 GISTDA空间技术副执行主任表示，这颗卫星不仅是技术成就，更是人才能力建设、技术研发与知识交流的载体。同箭入轨的两颗SAR卫星，分别为中科卫星14星、15星搭载高分辨率SAR载荷和太空云专项载荷，具备星上数据接收、计算、分析一体化能力，构建起遥感载荷与云端处理一体的空天信息平台。 至此银河航天承担研制并成功发射的SAR卫星已达10颗，订单量在商业航天企业中位居前列。值得一提的是，泰国是银河航天出海的第一站，2024年其构建的低轨宽带通信试验星座小蜘蛛网就曾在泰国完成试验验证。
