EU commissioner shocked by dangers of some goods sold by Shein and Temu

Among the worst examples McGrath came across were baby soothers with beads that fall off easily, which pose a choking hazard because they did not have the regulation size hole to enable a baby who did swallow one accidentally to continue to get air.

... children’s raincoats with toxic chemicals, sunglasses with no UV filter and kids shorts with draw strings longer than regulation length that cause a trip hazard.

... cosmetics containing butylphenyl methylpropional, also known as Lillal, which is listed as a chemical of “very high concern” by the EU and has been banned since 2022 over concerns that it affects fertility and fetal development. Last year, the UK government told consumers to dispose of any products containing the ingredient.

Why haven't these platforms been long banned and those responsible brought to a court?
