Today's Story Highlights

Amazon Brings Big Guns to Battle Against Counterfeit Products
Amazon has announced Project Zero, a program that empowers vendors to
help drive counterfeits down. The anti-counterfeit campaign will employ
Amazon's advanced technology, machine learning and innovation. Amazon
will partner with Project Zero's participating vendors to protect their
intellectual property by detecting and removing counterfeits of their
products.

FTC's Fake Reviews Settlement May Spur E-Commerce Fairness Era
The U.S. Federal Trade Commission has announced a settlement of its suit
against a company accused of using fake paid reviews to boost sales of
its health supplement product on Amazon. The settlement puts vendors and
marketing firms on notice that the FTC is committed to rigorous
enforcement of rules against fraudulent reviews on e-commerce platforms.

Why You Should Source Foreign Talent for AI, IoT and ML
The artificial intelligence revolution has been going on for a while,
but that does not mean all of software research and development is part
of it. It is, nonetheless, an interesting example of what pushes the
software industry forward. The ideas and techniques that brought machine
learning into existence were developed over the span of several decades.

Salesforce Reflections
Salesforce will be celebrating its 20th birthday on March 8. Where did
those decades go? "Time flies like an arrow," said Groucho. "Fruit flies
like a banana." There it is. A respectable chunk of the analyst
community that follows Salesforce converged last week in San Francisco
inside the company's cavernous new headquarters to hear about its plans
for the year ahead.
