"* Verify-Before-Payment Obligations Will Proliferate. One obvious target is
to impose verify-before-payment obligations similar to the SF ordinance’s
structure. Here’s some examples of regulations that should be consistent
with the court’s ruling:
– a city could require eBay/Amazon to verify that online vendors have a
local business license before being allowed to “conduct business” in an
online marketplace.
– regulators (or plaintiffs) could require that online marketplaces confirm
that listed goods aren’t illegal or subject to recall before enabling the
sale. For example, in the Hinton case, eBay avoided liability for recalled
goods. This court’s holding seems to point in a different direction.
– marketplaces could face products liability, including negligence, for the
sale of harmful items through the marketplace. See McDonald v. LG; compare
Vesely v. Armslist."
