Amazon Vows to Fight FTC on Kids In-App Purchases

Amazon.com says it's prepared to go to court against the Federal Trade Commission to defend itself against charges that it hasn't done enough to prevent children from making unauthorized in-app purchases. The FTC alleged in a draft lawsuit released by Amazon that unauthorized charges by children on Amazon tablets have amounted to millions of dollars. Amazon said in a letter Tuesday to FTC Chairwoman Edith Ramirez that it had already refunded money to parents who complained.
