#illegalproducts — Public Fediverse posts

Chinese online retailer #Temu has been fined €200 million by #EU tech regulators for failing to prevent the sale of #illegalproducts on its platform. The Commission criticised Temu for not adequately assessing the risks of illegal products and the impact of its recommender systems and influencer promotions. Temu disagrees with the decision, stating the fine is disproportionate and that it has since strengthened its platform governance.
