Comment on TEMU black hole
Wilzax@lemmy.world 3 months agoTemu uses illegal marketing tactics. The illegal marketing tactic they used on you was the Bait and Switch. These tactics are illegal because they are effective. Many people with weaker wills would just say “fuck it” and check out anyway, rather than deleting the app. These people prop up Temu and give them the funds to continue running their illegal business the way they do.
I’m just wondering why the FTC hasn’t fined the app out of operating in the US yet

Yeah, that pretty much explains it. Sad state of affairs when you have too many people willing to support such an unethical business model. I can imagine that anyone with a gambling addition could spend thousands of dollars quite easily on their platform.
