with very few checks and balances in place to ensure the product he’s selling is safe and legal. “Releasing the drink was surprisingly easy,” Butler told WIRED. “I thought that the food and drinks licensing would stop me from listing it, so I started it out in this Refillable Pump Dispenser category.

It’s almost like people expect that the things for sale are legal and safe, without first having people get harmed and having to report it.

I did read it. My point is that it’s not like Amazon specifically supported this. Someone could pull this same stunt on eBay; would eBay then come under identical fire?

They just did for selling those coal rolling kits. I don’t see why this would be any different. They’re facilitating the sale. It’s their platform. They have a responsibility to the people who use it, as well as a responsibility to treat their workers like human beings.
