A Columbia Law School study reveals that Amazon and Walmart intentionally suppress search results for "Made in USA" products using their AI shopping agents, favoring imported goods instead. Despite over 80% of Americans preferring domestic products for economic and job reasons, these retailers' AI systems mislabel or hide American-made items and allow fraudulent origin claims. The AI agents themselves admit this is a deliberate business decision, not a technical issue. The report calls for stronger regulatory action and potential legal accountability to address this widespread problem and better support American manufacturers and consumers.
