They need a “don’t show crappy Chinese junk” filter - I love shopping, but it’s impossible to browse for anything worthwhile, and incredibly boring.

I can’t believe you don’t need anything from WEWEQ or GOVEEUOO or QUOPEO. These are household brand names!

There’s a reason behind the weird brand names. The seller has to have a trademark on their brand name in order to participate in several Amazon programs, such as their predictive analytics. The easiest way to guarantee your trademark application succeeds is by ensuring it can’t possibly conflict with any existing trademark, and the easiest way of doing that is by generating a random string that’s (somewhat) pronounceable.

Lmao I told my wife recently the company names that dominate search results look like somebody just wiped their hands across a keyboard and said yep that’s the name alright.
