The Trump administration is cracking down on the sale of counterfeits online, specifically targeting platforms like Amazon. The initiative comes after the signing of a trade deal with China. Amazon has faced criticism for failing to prevent the spread of counterfeit goods on its platform, leading to calls for the company to be added to the U.S. government's "Notorious Markets" list. The crackdown also involves other e-commerce platforms like Alibaba, Walmart, and eBay.
