'Killer' car seats are still being sold online a decade after they were first identified, experts have warned. More than a dozen flimsy fabric seats marketed as safe for young children have been seen on popular websites including eBay, Little Dreams, ManoMano, Shein and Wish. These seats, which cost as little as £12.50, contain 'fundamental flaws' that put children's lives at risk. Consumer champion Which? first exposed the sale of these car seats 10 years ago and the listings were taken down at the time.

Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging. At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

These products were found for sale on online marketplaces including Amazon, eBay, ManoMano, and Etsy. These sleeping bags all featured large hoods which can fall down over a baby's face and suffocate them. Several of the baby sleeping bags for sale also failed to include arm holes, in clear violation of the British Standards Institution's safety standards. Without arm holes, the baby can slip down inside the bag, covering their faces and risking fatal suffocation.

Some TikTok users have reported seeing a troubling product in the last few days: T-shirts for sale on TikTok Shop that are an antisemitic parody of the Jaws movie poster. In the image printed on the shirts, the shark has been transformed into a human nose, the swimmer at the surface of the water is instead a $100 bill, and "Jaws" has been edited to read "Jews," propagating antisemitic stereotypes of Jewish people as money hungry.
