A group of small tech firms told Congress that Google, Apple and Amazon used bullying tactics to try to crush them. Here are some of the most astounding stories they shared.

But Sonos CEO Patrick Spence's testimony against Google went far beyond that.

Basecamp CTO David Heinemeier Hansson also had concerns on his company's presence on the search engine. Google makes up more than 40% of Basecamp's traffic, Barnett said Amazon had a host of such tactics to"bully" businesses, and described informing Amazon about 1000 fake products every day, with no recourse. At the same time, Barnett said that Amazon was lowering the prices it was charging consumers, and then demanding payment from PopSockets for its lost marginal profits.

"We sought to continue working with PopSockets as a vendor to ensure that we could provide competitive prices, availability, broad selection and fast delivery for those products to our customers. Like any brand, however, PopSockets is free to choose which retailers it supplies and chose to stop selling directly through Amazon," an Amazon spokesperson told Business Insider.
