Factură de 629.000.000 €: Uniunea Europeană zdrobește gigantul chinez AliExpress, cu o amendă-record • Newsweek România

The European Commission has imposed a record fine of €629 million on AliExpress for violating the Digital Services Act. This unprecedented penalty reflects the EU's zero tolerance for platforms neglecting consumer safety. AliExpress failed to implement effective content moderation and allowed the sale of dangerous products, including counterfeit medicines and harmful supplements. The fine aims to level the playing field for local businesses affected by unfair competition from Chinese sellers. The decision sends a strong message to other major online platforms, emphasizing their legal responsibilities. AliExpress plans to urgently revise its internal algorithms to prevent the distribution of counterfeit goods.
