Title: Amazon Expose
Post by: airboy on August 24, 2019, 10:19:11 AM
WSJ had a long story this morning about unsafe to outright deadly products sold on Amazon.

Worst were kids toys with lead and infant sleeping mats banned in the USA for suffocating infants.

Numerous were choking hazards that were not labeled, electronics products that claimed to be Underwriter Laboratory tested - but were not, and untested cosmetics.

Quite a few of the products were listed as "Amazon's Choice."

Conclusion of the article was the product safety standards any large retailer uses in the USA are not done by Amazon.
