Amazon Is Investigating Perplexity Over Claims of Scraping Abuse

Amazon's cloud arm is investigating Perplexity AI for potential violations of its web services rules, the e-commerce giant told Wired. The startup, backed by Jeff Bezos' family fund and Nvidia, allegedly scraped websites that had explicitly forbidden such access.

Earlier this month, WIRED uncovered evidence of Perplexity using an unmarked IP address to bypass restrictions on major news sites. The company's CEO, Aravind Srinivas, claimed a third-party contractor was responsible but declined to name them.
