French court rejects Shein website suspension over childlike sex dolls

AI Summary
A French court rejected the French government's request to suspend Shein's website for three months after the company was found to be selling childlike sex dolls and weapons. While the court acknowledged the seriousness of the issue, it deemed a website suspension disproportionate, citing Shein's swift removal of the offending items and the small number of problematic products relative to the site's overall inventory. The court did order Shein to implement age verification measures for adult products, with a penalty of €10,000 per breach. The government's request to suspend the sale of third-party items on the site was also rejected. Shein stated its commitment to protecting French consumers and improving control processes in collaboration with French authorities.
