The Federal Trade Commission and 22 states are suing Amazon.
They allege that the company made tens of billions of dollars over seven years by misleading brands and sellers.
The lawsuit argues Amazon, quote, secretly and systemically overcharged advertisers.
And note that Amazon is among NPR's financial supporters.
Specifically, the FTC focuses on the special auctions that Amazon uses to set advertising prices, for what Choppers see as sponsored list.
The FTC alleges that Amazon manipulated the bidding to push up the prices.

To be clear, Walmart sales are growing, they're up two point six percent in the US, but for the first time in several years, this growth came in lower than Wall Street expected.
Walmart sales historically beat expectations.
Much of the growth in the latest quarter came from online sales fueled by Walmart's growing advertising business.
One big culprit that dampened sales, the company said, was a change to regulations on how pharmacies charge for drugs.
Shoppers still visited about as often as they did a year before, but this time they spent less on average per purchase.
Walmart also says it's received nearly three billion dollars in tariff refunds and has been putting some of that toward lowering prices on thousands of items.
