Amazon gets sued for putting ads in Prime Video

Amazon Prime Video subscribers have had enough with ads, resulting in a lawsuit against the company.

• The accusation? Deceptive practices and false advertising after bringing in ads and having an additional fee to remove them

The heart of the complaint is in the shift from ads free Prime Video to a tiered plan with commercials.

The lawsuit claims it violates the expectations of subscribers who paid for an ad free service, especially those with annual memberships purchased before the change.

Amazon Prime Video used to cost $8.99 per month for Prime Video or $14.99 for Prime subscribers.

Now, if you want an ads free Amazon Prime Video experience, then you need to pay an extra $3 on top of the subscription.
