It's weird they only stop selling them now, it's been at least a year in France we know it kills people. I believe there is also a trial.
Why would Phillips remove them in France but keep selling them in the usa ?
Edit: my bad, it's been 2 years we know it gives cancer.
Capitalism
Greed and lack of empathy, not capitalism.
But also they somehow thought they could get away with it in the usa when they declared themselves 2 years ago in France that the foam in their device gives cancer. I really can't understand the logic, usa is the country of trial and lawyers, they knew they would get sued at some point.
greed and lack of empathy are the hallmarks of capitalism
