In an amended complaint, Amazon.com Services LLC continues to argue that accessing its website with unapproved software constitutes a violation, a position Perplexity AI Inc. says the Ninth Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals rejected, according to a filing urging a federal judge in California to dismiss the suit. Perplexity also tells the court that a newly added state law claim does not save the case. The dispute, dated November 3, 2026, is before a federal judge in San Francisco.
