But I'm most interested in this description of what happened at Amazon. I wasn't aware Amazon did these kind of immediate takedowns for patents; I thought you had to do arbitration (APEX)? Has that changed? Was my understanding mistaken? Is the record here just incorrect?

WenzhouFuruisi v. Xing - New declaratory judgment case over allegedly wrongful Amazon takedowns: https://www.scribd.com/document/704655616/WenzhouFuruisi-v-Xing-Complaint

There are a number of accused products. One of the infringement claims might have been colorable (but looks like it should probably lose on the merits).

This one, however, is absolutely ridiculous.

The patent has an effective filing date in 2013. According to the defendant (accused infringer), the defendant (patent owner) told Amazon that the accused product is an "exact duplicate" of a product the plaintiff has been selling since 2008.
