EU brings product liability rules in line with digital age and circular economy
Today [2024-10-10] the Council adopted a directive to update the EU’s civil liability law. The new liability rules better take into account that nowadays many products have digital features and that the economy is becoming increasingly circular.
Is the economy circular because we buy a thing that’s designed to break, it breaks, and we have to buy another thing to replace it which is also designed to break?
Is it that circle…the one where the end user is screwed over? Must be that circle.
