TLDR or Adblocked Summary:
Like the US did with Amazon, the EU is doing with Temu, Shein and Amazon. The marketplace will no longer be able to claim ignorance when it comes to dangerous or even recalled items.
Good.
Part of me has no issue with this. It’s amazons draconian enforcement, and willful ignorance of the people that review the appeals that is problematic.

Was not a pesticide. (again unless you count the bugs splattering on it at 55+ MPH on roads)
If it kills bugs it is obviously a PESTicide. Wikipedia says so –
" Pesticides are substances that are used to control pests…" and the BOTS agree…
This I agree with, but that is not the law/ruling’s fault. Amazon is just, Amazon
My foot is a pesticide.
So are my hands.
I have no pesticide certifications for my hands.
Come at me, Amazon.
Be careful what you wish for.
Dead man walking here…
My shoes don’t have pesticide certification either, and those things are practically a roach graveyard.
Agree 100% The law is good, Amazon could turn anything into a cluster though.
Amazon can turn a sunny day into a cluster
The real pest, is the moron who will not “pull to the right for sirens and lights”.
Pulling back onto topic…
That’s everyone who ever drove on the street where I live.
In other news, it sounds like Temu and Shein are having a tough week. I think it would fantastic if this somehow got them to care about what they sell, but the infinitely more likely scenario is that they will become even more aggressive in looking for loopholes, cut corners, and shifted responsibility.
In other words, taking more lessons from Amazon…
