Tell the FTC: Stop tech companies from selling kids’ data
Right now, there are no rules stopping tech companies from monetizing the data of kids and teens.
Our analysis found consumer product recalls jumped 22% and new injuries continue to occur months after initial recall.
A new CoPIRG Foundation report analyzing consumer product recall data found a 33% jump in recalls from 2021 to 2022. 85 recalls involved products for babies and children or pose a risk for babies and children. Other categories with large numbers of recalls were furniture/furnishings/decor, kitchen, electronics and clothing.
Leading reasons for recalls were risk of fire, risk of poisoning, choking hazard and excessive levels of lead.
