Increase scrutinisation of imported goods on e-commerce platforms and auction sites.

Created on April 07, 2016

Currently, on sites such as E-Bay or Amazon, businessmen from China and other countries are offering low quality and even defective goods for sale in the US. The marketplaces are unable to keep track of these scammers. We, the people, need legislation that will protect us from defective foreign goods.

For example, Leung, a Google engineer, tested several USB type C plugs to find that an overwhelming majority of the no-brand ones were defective or even potentially hazardous. Read the article here http://gizmodo.com/a-google-engineer-is-publicly-shaming-crappy-usb-c-ca... .

These inferior products cost too much to return, leaving the consumer to foot the bill. Stop this!
