A toy hoverboard that burst into flames and “severely burned” a California woman has resulted in a major product-liability ruling against Amazon. Columnist Davidlaz explains:

Jon Fawcett wanted to build a cellphone cable that wouldn’t fray.

Amazon prevailed in the original case. An L.A. judge agreed with the Seattle company that it was merely an “online advertiser” and not responsible for the third-party products it sells. The lawsuit was dismissed in March 2019. She said only that “Amazon invests heavily in the safety and authenticity of all products offered in our store, including proactively vetting sellers and products before being listed, and continuously monitoring our store for signals of a concern.”
