The Federal Court of Appeal has upheld a decision keeping the competition commissioner from getting access to Amazon data it hoped would help prove the company permits fake reviews to remain on its website.

A new decision issued by the court dismisses an appeal the competition watchdog argued last year in hopes of advancing an investigation into Amazon’s marketing practices.
