Temu Accused by EU of Breaking Rules With Illegal Product Sales

The European Union has launched an investigation into the Chinese-owned e-commerce platform, Temu, alleging that the company fails to adequately monitor the sale of illegal products on its platform. The EU claims that Temu does not properly assess the extent to which illegal items are being sold through its channels, which is a violation of the bloc's rules. The investigation is part of the EU's broader efforts to crack down on the sale of counterfeit and unsafe goods online. Temu, which is a relatively new player in the e-commerce market, has faced scrutiny over the quality and legitimacy of the products sold on its platform. The EU's move highlights the growing regulatory pressures faced by online marketplaces as they grapple with the challenges of policing the vast array of goods sold through their platforms.
