And they've already reversed the suspension, unsurprisingly. Stopping the flow of treats from Shein and Temu would be something people would actually care about.

Glad to see that the US still believes in free market capitalism and competition between businesses

Also, Hong Kong eh? But I thought Hong Kong is one of the good Chinas and deserves the US's support in its fight against communism!

Also also, if you're not in the US, this might be a good time to shop on your Chinese shopping site of choice. They'll probably run deals to drive up sales to make up for lost US sales, and you're probably buying the same shit rebranded on Amazon anyway.

And just like that, Bezos' networth increased a few hundred billions.

I briefly wondered if I was being paranoid when I canceled my ebay order yesterday. I'm sorry to say I wasn't.
