That’s a different problem entirely. It used to be stores had to carefully source the products they sold to make sure they weren’t selling something that wasn’t allowed to be sold in the US, with the advent of Amazon that all went out the window, now the name of the game is defraud everyone you can and claim innocence on the backend when caught. “Our algorithm didn’t catch it, we stopped selling it as soon as we were made aware it was definitely illegal”.
The funniest hypocrisy of Silicon Valley/tech culture is that it’s full of people who think the rules and laws don’t apply to them but they vote every year for more and more regulations, that they then brazenly flout and act all indignant that the government has failed to do the things they voted for (and thus we need more government) but then refuse to actually follow.
