AliExpress fined €550M under the Digital Services Act over illegal products

Not yet final

The European Commission found that AliExpress fell short of its duty to diligently assess the risk of illegal, unsafe and counterfeit products spreading on its marketplace, and failed to take effective measures to reduce that risk. It is the largest fine issued under the Digital Services Act so far.
