<h2><span style=”color: #ba372a;”><strong>French Agency Finds Childlike Sex Dolls On Shein Website</strong></span></h2>
<p><span style=”font-weight: 400;”>The French consumer watchdog DGCCRF said on Saturday that it discovered childlike sex dolls and several other adult-looking dolls for sale on Shein’s website. </span></p>
<p><span style=”font-weight: 400;”>The agency immediately flagged these products as inappropriate and against French laws. It also said that it had passed the information to the judicial authorities for further action.</span></p>
<p><span style=”font-weight: 400;”>The watchdog explained that such dolls, which resemble children, are not only offensive but also illegal under France’s consumer and child protection laws.</span></p>
<p><span style=”font-weight: 400;”>They can encourage disturbing behaviour and violate safety standards. The DGCCRF regularly checks online retail sites for any banned or dangerous products being sold to customers in France.</span></p>
<p><span style=”font-weight: 400;”>The discovery once again highlights the challenge of monitoring products on large e-commerce platforms, which often host items from different sellers around the world. </span></p>
<p><span style=”font-weight: 400;”>Many such listings are uploaded automatically, and platforms are expected to take them down once they are reported.</span></p>
<h2><span style=”color: #ba372a;”><strong>Shein Removes Banned Items From Sale</strong></span></h2>
<p><span style=”font-weight: 400;”>According to Reuters, Shein confirmed on Sunday that it has taken down the childlike sex dolls and other adult items after being alerted by the French watchdog. </span></p>
<p><span style=”font-weight: 400;”>The company said it does not support or allow the sale of illegal or harmful products on its website. Shein added that it has strict rules for sellers and will continue to improve its monitoring systems.</span></p>
<p><span style=”font-weight: 400;”>This action shows how big online retailers are under pressure from regulators to check what is being sold on their platforms. </span></p>
<p><span style=”font-weight: 400;”>Authorities in France and other countries are working to make sure online marketplaces follow the law and keep harmful items away from customers.</span></p>
