Amazon sold products at a loss for years in order to capture market share, then raised prices. That is blatant abuse of market power

>Amazon sold products at a loss for years in order to capture market share

Selling at a loss on a cost of goods sold basis, or the entire business as a whole? I'm aware of the latter but not the former. The latter also isn't obvious "abuse", because it would include all sorts of market entrants, including eg. intel trying to enter the GPU space and making a loss because of R&D.
