   When they are acting like ebay (i. e. as a marketplace, letting others   
   sell via them), they do not vet the sellers as well as they should. It   
   could be argued that the volumes involved make this impossible - they   
   could not provide the service free or even cheaply if they employed   
   humans to vet all advert.s; this is almost certainly true (and applies   
   to _all_ such marketplaces, not just Amazon).   
      
   As for unsubscribing:

   I can't comment _legally_ (I don't even know any details of the current   
   case). _Morally_, for any subscription service - be it for magazine, TV   
   streaming service, or anything else - it _should_ be as easy to   
   unsubscribe as it was to subscribe; in _practice_, I know of _no_   
   service/product where this is the case.
