Judge Grants Amazon Injunction Against Perplexity
A US federal judge on Monday granted Amazon a preliminary injunction against Perplexity, finding the company likely violated federal and California computer fraud laws by using its Comet AI browser to access password‑protected Amazon accounts without permission. The order, issued by US District Judge Maxine Chesney in the Northern District of California, pauses Comet’s shopping agent and requires destruction of any Amazon data obtained. The injunction bars entry into password‑protected areas while the lawsuit proceeds.
Scoring Rationale
Legal injunction establishes clear precedent for agent access controls, limited by narrow single-case scope and ongoing litigation.
